Reddit privacy moderators recently censored this content over a day after it was posted. IMO the reason is suspicious.
Accessible at Reddit or Reveddit
(There are no subreddit rules banning “political propaganda” or “character assassination.” Nor does this comment appear to rise to either of those accusations: other non-removed comments back up the removed one.)
lmao, of course he is. I’ve been bashing Brave since Ethereum markets took off and they did their shitcoin that of course they abandoned two months later. Quit blocking ads with grifter software trash like Brave.
preach
Imagine being so fucking ignorant that you actually liked Brave even before finding out Thiel was involved. Eich’s involvement was already enough (fuck that guy for inflicting Javascript on the world), let alone the fact that its business model is a protection racket wrapped in a crypto scam.
(Not trying to downplay Eich’s bigotry, BTW, just trying to raise awareness of all the other underappreciated ways that he sucks.)
Brave always reeked of VC money with all the promotion they do. It genuinely turns me off whenever I see supposed “for the community” software with heavy marketing.
What’s his bigotry?
He’s publicly against same-sex marriage and was a firm supporter of Proposition 8, an amendment to the California Constitution defining marriage as valid only between a man and a woman, which was later overturned in federal court.
Wow that’s fucked, yikes.

Eeeep I am one of those ignorant people. Had no idea. Funny enough I switched back to Firefox a few weeks ago for other reasons.
What??!!?? That Peter Thiel? Could you give me a link about that?

Thanks for the info, Brave has just fallen to the Chrome level for me now
Anyone know any alternatives on iPhone they could recommend?
Firefox. Vivaldi if you want to stay with a Chromium-based browser.
Nothing is Chromium-based on iPhone.
Criticism of dear leaders will not be tolerated on a corpo platform hence why people who actually care to have discussions end up here.

I always had a feeling that palce was compromised.
I guess my gut feeling was not wrong few years back.
You can talk about privacy as long as you ain’t hurting daddy’ profit 🤡
Soez lapdogs so fucking hard it’s beyond sad. Dude legit does not realise that there is no magical number of gobbled cocks that will gain him entrance to The Club
Brave is the chic-fil-a of web browsers.
Its the web browser that cuts babies in half, burns them, and sells their charred, lifeless bodies on a bun to homophobes for lunch?
I didn’t know chic-fil-a was so metal.
What does the name mean? It’s right there.
Metal isn’t very homophobic. Metal heads are some of the most accepting and nice subcultures I know, next to maybe furries.
I mean most of the metal attire we stole from our Queer Metal Daddy, Lord Rob Halford.
Reread what I was commenting on and pay attention to the actions imagined not who they were performed for. That’s what I was talking about. Metal heads tend to be okay with the gay thing. Like not even an issue.

TIL. I hope that evil fucker dies (of natural causes, but soon, please).
Die sooner with any cause
Yea beggers cant be choosers
Im okay if he dies in a car crash, ‘act of god’, falling into a centrifuge, being on an elon musk rocket, private billionaire submarine, cthulu breaching the walls of reality, shredded by an angry ghost, eaten by giant possibly magic possibly engineered spiders.
There are a lot of ways it woukd be cool for him to die.
Hell; I’d be pretty psyched about some of these for me.
Do we do Reddit here? Because I can post shit load of my posts and comments being removed due to them being critical of Israel - and that was well before the current genocide chapter. Mods there are awful and admins are even worse.
BTW I now realised who unpopularopinion mod may have picked up from 🤔
Reddit is the corporate shill of the internet. The shareholders, did you ever think of them when you criticized Israel?
😂
Do we do Reddit here?
Unfortunately
Yes, it’s always fun to click on links that are reddit and meta because people think we actually want to do that. It’s largely why I just post links as they are, unless they’re just stupidly long.
Eich is a homophobe, cryptobro and the inventor of javascript.
All of these are unforgivable.
Is Eich a homophobe?
Yes. He donated to an anti-gay-marraige org.
Oh man. That sucks. What a dick.
Which proves my point. They don’t really care about wedge issued (Peter Thiel isn’t cis het), they just use them to drive the wedge between the masses.
Funny thing so does thiel, practically the gop.
Thiel has his creepy hands everywhere nowadays. Doesn’t surprise me the least bit.
Especially his boy toy fell out of a multistory building(sound familiar) under suspicious circumstances last year, it barely made the news outside of Florida and was on Reddit for one day. When he start expressing concerns about thiels anti lgbti- support via the gop. Thiel definitely don’t want the news to be widespread.
I think it’s been this way for a long time, but now people are talking about it.
Damn. So, assuming it’s true, what would be a suitable alternative? Is Firefox compromised or nah?

Thanks a lot for the tip!
Librewolf & Waterfox are hardened firefox
but if you are more on focused on looks i think Zen is betterZen had some really concerning security/privacy concerns recently, which called into the question the competence of the creator, so I’d be wary of it.
Community reports of other privacy concerns being ignored
that really is very concerning

Even if Firefox were compromised by megalomaniacal shitheads, it would still be worth picking over any Chromium-based browser because every Chromium-based browser helps cement Google’s hegemony over web standards.
FF has problems of depending on Google for money
Isn’t r/privacy taken over by conservatives
