Brave browser blocks Windows feature that takes screenshots of everything you do on your PC

Because it's mainly a measure of how much people use Macs. Apple products were always significantly more popular and "hype" in the Anglo world than anywhere else. 5,5% global vs 16% in USA, for example
Interesting hypothesis

What a title. Made me think installing the browser blocked the feature machine-wide.

Unless you're tech-savvy and actively change your OS, people just use whatever is shipped with their computer and, yea, Apple isn't nearly as popular outside of the English-speaking world as it is within it, at least when it comes to laptops. The share of Linux, and other smaller systems, is probably roughly the same.

Oh so they're just doing whatever Firefox is doing in private mode on Android that makes screenshots all black

For now it is opt-in. It's unlikely to remain that way.

He invented JavaScript, so definitely don't use that either. For real. JavaScript sucks.
I used to hate JS but barley had used it. Now I use it on a daily base and hate it even more.

I've used this for years and have never interacted with any crypto feature
Not interacted doesnt mean it's non-existant.
It exists and therefore it's bad enough. -

Brave is the least bad chromium browser
It's pretty sleazy. Ungoogled Chromium or Vivaldi are probably less sleazy, if at all.
Vivaldi is not open source, so for me it doesn't count as a valid option.

Unfortunately that would involve using the Brave browser, which is an antifeature in itself.

Iām not even pro Brave but all that ad stuff is opt-in so it doesnāt matter as long as you donāt want to see ads. The arguments in this thread are starting to just loop in circles. Essentially using Brave is fine if you stick to the default. Thereās no sleazy stuff if you donāt enable it and the CEO also doesnāt make a dime from you if thatās something youāre concerned about. You could of course use a different chromium browser if you want but itās virtually the same thing.

Actually it does! When youre installing, just delete the windows boot partition and your done!
Heck, wipe the entire disk!
(based on a real life experience)
(windows just kept standing no matter what partition i deleted so i wiped the disk clean)

Daves garage actually had a good video on the shared memory architecture recently that gives some insights on why apple designed this way they did. Donāt dismiss ādifferentā as ātrash.ā You sound like an idiot when you do and it makes it difficult for adults to take you seriously. PC and Mac are designed with different goals in mind, so they tend to make different choices in their engineering, and you arenāt going to like every decision either side makes.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Shared memory is different to unified memory, AMD's got an implementation of the later with their "Ryzen AI MAX+" (ugh) systems, does quite well in benchmarks.
It also doesn't hurt that Apple puts the RAM on the SoC and gives it a truckload of bandwidth. DDR5 is about 70GB/s, meanwhile the M4 Max is around 540GB/s.

They haven't blocked the windows feature, they're using DRM to interfere with it. Microsoft could easily change how the DRM works any time they want, rendering all these hacks useless.

JS is difficult to avoid. Brave is easy to avoid, just use another browser.

Brave's CEO is a homophobic Trump supporter. No thanks.

If he provide good service for me - browser which fits my needs. I would even send him money every day
