So #Kagi is now partnering with #Brave, i.e. the company of Brendan Eich, who has been CEO at Mozilla for eleven days before he had to leave due to massive criticism of his homophobic views. Brave's most well-known product is a browser with its own cryptocurrency, co-designed by Eich.

A feedback post asking Kagi to reconsider has been closed by Kagi's founder Vladimir Prelovac because "Considering company x founder political views is not a factor in [their] evaluation".

Nach 4 Monaten mit dem #Brave Browser, habe ich nun ruebergemacht... @Vivaldi ist ja mal sowas von grossartig!

Ich haette da schon viel frueher auf @DonDahlmann hoeren sollen. Bin hin und weg und liebe gerade wirklich alles daran!

I know Mozilla is enshittificating Firefox step by step but keep in mind that Brave is not a solution.

Help people in censored countries bypass censorship by installing the Snowflake addon from @torproject ❄️

Whether you are running #Firefox, #Chrome, or one of the many other browser flavours (#Waterfox, #Edge, #Brave, #Vivaldi, etc.); once you install Snowflake, there's nothing else you need to do.

Then people can use your internet connection as a launchpad to the #Tor network. Clever stuff.

While we don't promote non-#FOSS apps, we can salute #Brave for setting up their own #FDroid repository for #BraveBrowser. @brave how about a fully FOSS browser in f-droid.org next? 😉

@fdroidorg
dislike... "we don't promote X, but here is a promotion of X" is a bad idea.

I would prefer if it was framed like: "While anybody can create a #Fdroid repository, there is no guarantee that it will contain fully (or even partially!) #FOSS apps. Unfortunately, that is still the situation with #Brave. We appeal to them to make #BraveBrowser fully free software by getting rid of non-free bits, so they can publish on f-droid.org - which guarantees FOSS-only apps"

Me: Please don't use Chromium-based browsers, use Firefox instead. Google has way too much control over the web because of Chromium and they'll be sure to leverage that in order to benefit themselves.

Chromium: Hey all, we're getting rid of ad-blockers because it's cutting into our record-breaking revenue! I mean, uh, we're deprecating Manifest V2 for, uh, security. Yeah.

Me: See? Please use Firefox.

Mind you, this still isn't a good excuse to use a Chromium-based browser.

And for all you people using Brave out there, well 🖕 Brave is run by this guy who hates queer people and believes conspiracy theories about Covid, so maybe don't use his shitty browser that's been caught injecting affiliate links.
