• Firefox offers better privacy and security than Chrome, with upcoming support for 200 new add-ons. • While Chrome dominates, Firefox gains ground with user-friendly browsing experience and open-source model. • Mozilla’s focus on user privacy and transparency challenges Google’s ad-centric approach, making Firefox a viable alternative.
The mobile experience of Firefox with ad block is so much better than Chrome. Using chrome on mobile makes the Internet feel broken to me. I can’t go back.
Brave has the best mobile experience IMO. Built-in dark content (this is gamechanger, dark reader is broken on FF mobile, slow and breaks pages), background playback (though this has FF also), very fast, more than FF. Powerful rust-written adblocker (though UBO is better but is slow and broke some pages on mobile). The only thing that could improve more is extensions capacity.
Brave is a scam
Reasons and source?
inb4 “they added an affilliate link to an exchange 5 years ago,”
I need more up to date reasons lol. We are in 2023, on those times brave hasn’t even the 0.0001% of market share…
you won’t get one “they heard it” . I prefer firefox because I’ve used it for almost 2 decades and know it inside-out, but brave is solid too. As long as it remains open source I’m fine with it , and it’s my “chrome backup” when a page is designed for chrome

Most of us don’t care as long as the product is good. There are a lot more people involved with brave than him who are doing a great job. Unless you can actively show me a shit post history like Trump, I don’t gaf.

Ok I agree, fine. But where is the critic against Mozilla’s CEO that increased her salary up to $5 million dollars? at the same time firing a lot of employees? https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2020/08/firefox-maker-mozilla-lays-off-250-workers-says-covid-19-lowered-revenue/ The bias is real.

Yes, some guy having racist ideas somehow isnt as bad ad disrupting a lot of lives while taking a pay raise. There’s always a some degree of evil involved with anything at scale. pick the thing that screws you least.
Antisemitism? What? what are you talking about, we are talking about opposition to same sex marriage. You can think whatever you want, we live in a free society. Now, it is different if I approve or not that idea, but who cares???

But I don’t care what you care
ublock is not slow, the difference between it and rust is insignificant if you look at page load time data with a similar set of block lists.
I am talking about Firefox ANDROID. Brave have native adblocker, it’s not for the fact that Rust is fast (that is), its because it’s native. the same way dark reader slows down dramatically some sites on ANDROID. Chromium have native dark mode for contents.
