No idea why people use and recommend Brave when Firefox exists. It's full of crypto and other unnecessary add-ons out of the box.

It's faster on older devices

Firefox still doesn't have vertical tabs which I've found really useful for my workflow right now, so I use a fork called Pulse. Don't want to use any extensions for it when Pulse and other forks do it natively.

There's a million add-ons that add this, isn't there? I have one installed at home that basically makes it into what arc has

Probably, but between the disabling of userChrome.css (even if you can enable it via about:config) and a possible conflict between other addons I use, I'm comfy with my Pulse setup.

Yeah, such a light and lean browser...

All of that Firefox has its equivalents as well as some of that being untrue as they're search engines not websites etc

[–] ReakDuck@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Brave has adware and bloat preinstalled, firefox doesn't even have something similar to this.

Why do Bravephobes love making shit up and projecting?

[–] ReakDuck@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why are you gaslighting so hard. Just lookup what adware is. It has literally preinstalled crypto marketing widget that you need to disable or smth and also provide a opt-in ads for crypto solution that has opt-out "Gift the tokens to the page that has no wallet"

[–] praeceptorem666@relyma.club -1 points 2 years ago

When one makes a claim like that when nothing indicated such things, its accepted in the community of behavioral analysis that it was a projection. Bravephobes love making shit up Lol

Braveophobes lmao you sound like a paranoid government leader
