It's a scam. He clearly has no web development knowledge, the website is very little effort, no maintenance or expansion of the site, and he is not technical at all. When was there any changes to the website brax.me and what changes were they?

To me knowledge, he has never shot a single instructional video. What he says is a mix of what he reads and his opinion, but he has never done a video showing how to do anything shawcasing his skill.

Looking at brax.me, I suspect he is targeting people who only know how to turn on a cell phone and know nothing more than that so that can't find fault with anything he says and hopefully be amazed by his ramblings.

He is only about getting free money, he has no skills to teach and educate others how to do. He charges for services that others give for free. Such as the 4GB storage limit, multple Nextcloud sites provide free 10GB storage. He's trying to make money without working.

Without even getting to the technical issues….if you build a “fully operation” social platform, shouldn’t you host your blog on your shiny wonderful service that you’re promoting, instead of Medium?

That should raise an alarm without even knowing what the word encryption means.

I consider Brax one of the major internet privacy info outlets(don't hate me). I listen to his live streams but I don't buy or use his stuff.

I don't buy stuff from Youtubers. If they had a real business, they wouldn't spend most of their time making Youtube videos.
