A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I wouldn't recommend Brave for 3 main reasons:

  1. Chromium-based

  2. Funded by venture capitalists

  3. Supported by crypto and ads

Unfortunately, Firefox and its forks are really the only alternative to Chrome.

Also the whole brave CEO being a homophobic prick. Also that adblock will probably break under v3
