Don’t trust brave, never will.
well their CEO is a right wing nazi so no thanks.
And they just re-skin Chrome, so you are helping Google own the internet anyway. Use Firefox or Safari.
I re-downloaded Brave the other day, and I was disappointed to recall how bloated it feels. The attention tokens, crypto wallet, in-house search engine, trialware VPN, etc.—it’s for someone, but not me…
“attention tokens,” wow that sounds bad in and of itself
Wait why would the search engine be the bloat part?
Brave is trying to create an ecosystem where you use the browser to access their many “free” services. Once they run out of venture capital money and they’ve got people hooked, it’s a slippery slope. Just my two cents though. I never loved Brave’s corporate personality to begin with.
That’s fair. I feel like bloat would be the wrong term to use in regards to a search engine though 😅
Nope. Nope. And nope. Any company tied to crypto I will not trust.
I am always a bit cautious with Brave products’ privacy policies
Especially with the CEOs view on homosexuality.

It’s built on top of chromium, so they might be privacy preserving but google isn’t.
Fwiw this is about Brave Search, not the Brave Browser
Ah I see my bad, privacy focused alternative search engines are good. Carry on
