I'm just learning about what all the fuss around Brave is. But I'd be interested to hear how Google seems to be the ethical choice for a daily driver browser currently. It's obviously fine to not want to use Brave, but how is it the inferior choice when compared to Chrome (or even considered a sidegrade)? Even with all the issues mentioned I'd still recommend it as the lesser of the 2 evils compared to Chrome.
No one is saying Chrome is the ethical choice, why are you reducing this to a 2 options choice?
I'm not.
The commenter I'm replaying to implies they're using Chrome primarily, and then reacted negatively to the mention of Brave. I'm asking how Chrome use is the acceptable choice and Brave is seemingly so bad in comparison.
I don't think the commenter you are replying to is arguing that chrome is a better choice. He or she knows it's bad but didn't make the change out of lazyness (no offence). Change has a cost, especially if it implies changing habits. So people will just delay or avoid them.
obviously, but when you have the option of just, not using chrome at all, why would you use anything chromium based to begin with, google is literally the problem here lmao
