Brave Launches Official F-Droid Repository for Android Browser to Bypass Google Play

What do you use? I struggle to not have at least one chromium variant installed for work purposes - I feel like half my jobs' apps or sites don't work in Firefox.
wrote last edited by [email protected]I have ungoogled-chromium installed just in case, but have yet to actually require it.

Brave is a great browser, specially on older mobile. It is the default browser for the Nobara gaming linux distro, because it's so good, and recently ranked top tier browser by Pewdiepie.

Browsers on iOS are all just Safari, there is no meaningful difference. On older Android FOSS Browser or Fennec + Ublock + Noscript are both faster and more stable than Brave.

There are tons of Firefox forks there?
Support from the primary source of development is what I'd prefer. That's where the money is. Mozilla is the only one that could actually have a sizable marketing budget along with employing dozens to hundreds of software developers

All of those forks get support from the primary source of development. Do you know what a fork is?
-
Come on, it's open source. It has some analytics but definitely not spyware
Many types of malware are open source

wrote last edited by [email protected]Is your first instinct talking to people is to be a dick? Forks pull changes downstream and hopefully push changes upstream but if you want to see either the core Firefox web browser engine or F-Droid reach more popularity, you need Mozilla support so I would rather support Mozilla directly than any fork

wrote last edited by [email protected]My bad if I took your words the wrong way. I gave my answer for why I prefer to use the primary application, because of funding, and your response to me sounded like dismissive condescension. You may not have meant condescension but it reads like dismissive condescension to me like I've heard plenty of whether in or out of the software industry or academia

And they tried to steal money while claiming it was donations for content creators.
Yes, honestly the most damning thing they've done, selling out their own users

YSK: Brendan Eich left Mozilla over his own homophobic beliefs. He is also a coronavirus denier.
Brave is homophobic Chrome with crypto on top
wrote last edited by [email protected]That's not even the full extent of his homophobia. He also made donations to a politician who said that AIDS is a great thing and will purge the world of gay people.
He also gave an interview about the whole being pressured to leave Mozilla thing, and said he was disappointed in how intolerant of his beliefs Mozilla staff were once they became public knowledge.
Yes, you read that right, a man who wanted to strip gay people of their rights cried about fucking intolerance towards him. Clown.

Firefox can be installed from Mozilla and managed by Obtainium. Much better option all the way around.
-
At the very least the best open source chromium browser although the majority of those on lemmy hate the CEO behind it.
For my use cases I need to use a chromium browser so I use brave on windows, iOS and Linux
Ha, wait until they hear who the main developers are for Lemmy! Not much moral consistency

Are you serious guys? Brave isn't malware, it's been checked by thousands.

graphene os + vanadium is secure and private. Still chromium based though.

If you have to use something chromium based just use chromium or Vivaldi if you like something more customized.
At least ime they both work fine. but no one can really tell you what you should use. I avoid brave hard because I trust Peter Theil less than I would trust an addict to give me back the 100$ I loaned them.
I currently use Vivaldi but I guess I was getting the impression that using chromium in any form was a no-no.

Cool I guess. But I still find Brave to be a sketchy organization with how they have done some of their schemes to make money over the years. So will continue to avoid anything they make.

Is Brave browser the cryptocoin crap browser? I think I've used it for a short time about 2 years ago, before moving to Vivaldi and later Firefox.
