@grafcube @opensource @privacy So mostly, I agree with what you said, but except the things you got wrong, which I already, mentioned there some other things I wanted to say: You critized Brave for including it's crypto stuff, which is fair, but you said it like it would make it less trustworthy or bad for privacy which isn't true, also u just can disable it and it has also the posetive effect that people who like this crypto stuff, start using a privacy respecting browser instead of the others
@grafcube @opensource @privacy Which I also wanted to say, the only Ads Brave allow are Ads in Search Results as far ik, I never seen any other ads so far while using Brave on Android (on Desktop I have uBO on top), you also said that Firefox has the superior Fingerprinting Protections which isn't rly true, Brave's approach to defend fingerprinting by randomization (giving every website a unique fingerprint every new session, etc.) is pretty effective. While Vivaldi has almost no fingepriting1/2
@grafcube @opensource @privacy 2/2 protections which make it a lot weaker compared too Brave. I wouldn't never recommend Vilvadi over Brave, if it's about privacy.
