For god sakes don’t use Brave. Brave has been caught doing shady shit in the past, and the CEO is a piece of shit on top of that.

Use Firefox with privacy addons.

Vivaldi and Firefox are better choices.

PS: considering reviewing Brave again. Everyone should contribute to their source code.

[–] hannes3120@feddit.de 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Vivaldi is the best!

Currently trying out Floorp as a Firefox fork for the possibility that Google's disabling of adblockers in the manifest will make it impossible to use chromium browsers which is kind of good, too

But Vivaldi rules as long as chromium is an option!

Floorp looks nice and customizable, but in terms of updates it doesn't seem very sustainable yet.

[–] hannes3120@feddit.de 0 points 6 months ago

I get updates every other week

but I think it's in a weird spot with not having regular English patchnotes - and afaik they also use an older rendering-engine

I hate how they cut off the graph...

[–] pHr34kY@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That graph is trash. The baseline needs to be at zero.

[–] Ross_audio@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (2 children)

No it doesn't.

It's meant to illustrate a change and it does so perfectly fine. It's not a scientific paper.

It's a 32-34% increase looking at the graph. That's significant enough to shout about.

Imagine any change you could make surprising competition by 25% in any market. That's huge.

But you don't get that percentage from looking at the graph. You get that from looking at the numbers.
The graph height increases by 300% in the last ~~3 months~~ 9 days.

[–] Pantherina@feddit.de 0 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

That graph looks exaggerated but this is over a few days which is crazy

[–] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It is misleading. In a reputable graph, your y axis would start at zero

[–] Pantherina@feddit.de 0 points 6 months ago

No the axis shows a detailed increase with clearly stated numbers. This is just the first impression.

We are not talking about Apple graph madness

apple bullshit

[–] OrangeCorvus@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yeah but Brave? Why not Firefox or Vivaldi.

[–] Norgur@fedia.io 1 points 6 months ago

Forgive them. They aren't used to choosing their browser yet.
