Unless enterprise is part of the equation. All those people are simply stuck using whatever thier company uses. Which is usually Edge and Chrome. With no option to change.
Most workplaces I've been at let me pick, but one did not let me use Firefox (only Chrome or Safari).
Weirdly one place didn't block things but Brave wouldn't install because the installer was actually a downloader and I couldn't set it to use the corporate proxy. (Also don't hate me, I don't use Brave anymore and am not a fan, this was back in 2019.)
Genuine question. Why don't you use Brave anymore? I'm not a fan of edge or Chrome and am happy with Brave. Always open to ideas through.
Sure! Happy to talk about it. I was never a fan of the crypto but you can disable it so that's not my problem. My problem is that a while back they added affiliate information to links you clicked so that they got money. To me, something a browser should do is go to links you click on as you click on them and not mess with them (apart from privacy/security things). It's a huge loss of trust.
Apart from that, I view all Chromium based browsers negatively nowadays because I don't want to give Google de facto control of web standards. Chromium has a monopoly on browsers, basically. Especially since even Microsoft Edge is Chromium based now. The ad blocking changes were part of this, but just in general. I don't think one company should just be able to make a change and have everyone passively adopt it because they're downstream consumers of it. And yes, Brave is Chromium based.
Hi thanks for that. I now that Brave is Chromium based I did not know that it had affiliates so that is something to think about. My lap top is about to go obsolete due to windows 11 so am going to move to Linux in the very near future so I will think I will look around for a new browser at the same time. Again, thank for your reply.
