@feddit.deThis is the reason why I left Reddit, nice to see that the toxicity also arrived Lemmy.
If you read it, you realize it isn't bad as it sounds and has nothing to do with there browser and really less with trustworthyness of the company in terms of privacy and security. So instead of trying to find evidence why "Brave is bad" make a Pro and Con List for Brave and compare it with the google infected Firefox and you will see why I prefer Brave as the browser of trust and use LibreWolf as second, because it's like a real private version of Firefox.
You can disable it, in the settings. Still a feature which shouldn't be there in my opinion.
I would suggest checking the Interview that Techlore made, he ask the owner of the site similar questions.
Tbh. Mozilla wasn't better in the past and as long it doesn't affect the product I don't mind the political views of the owner (it's still concerning). As long Brave can provide me better privacy and security for my daily browsing I will continue using and recommending it. And listening to Wikipedia he stepped back, by himself.
