@cyrus I’ve had Brave as my backup browser (Firefox is my primary) for quite some time now. I really like it.

@kev @cyrus doesn’t Brave have fishy business practices; taking donations for sites and “holding the funds” if they don’t have a brave account to collect them. I remember seeing the articles and thinking what arseholes and that I’d never use it.

@swansinflight @cyrus yeah, something about a binance affiliate link when you visit the normal binance site. I don’t care about that though, supports the projects and has no impact on me. Don’t know about the other thing you’re talking about.

@kev @cyrus the issue was that they put a link up to support a site, but never told sites and pocketed the money until caught and then said they were just holding it because the show never had an account to collect their super money.

Which I why I’m shocked every time I see someone recommend Brave. It was all over the news and podcasts and just reeked of dodgy business practices. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@swansinflight @kev That #Brave swindle is the same scam #Yelp was caught doing: https://invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=_tIYrjBEczE
