And it’s always the same, AI-slop looking ad. I don’t even know if I have sleep apnea, I just snore really loud sometimes cuz of my sinus issues.

Or, y’know, any better browser, a firefox derivative maybe even, or just, a different chromium derivative, that isn’t a slop machine run by a creep. Seriously, why the heck do people keep recommending brave?

It’s funny seeing the massive divide between Lemmy and Reddit on Brave. On Reddit, Brave is continuously praised as the go-to browser because they ran a massive astroturfed campaign and got a bunch of redditors to switch. But on Lemmy (where they never ran that astroturfing) Brave is pretty widely hated because the CEO is a piece of shit with a history of doing shady shit.
You can always tell when someone is a recent Reddit refugee, because they’ll mention Brave and immediately get shouted down. And sure enough, the person’s account is only like two weeks old.
How recent is this history? Because I remember many years back now something like an AMA or some other post by the CEO of Brave, promoting it ahead of it being released I think and getting a pretty frosty reception on Reddit once people asked a bit more about how it was supposed to work. As time went on the reception seemed only to get worse as rumours spread of crypto scams and dodginess and even just on a basic level, questions of “why would we use this when we could just use Firefox with an ad blocker?”
I get the impression though that Reddit has been changing.
Oh that’s why lol!
