I actually sincerely went into the article hoping for logical technical explanations. But I can't justify listening to someone who starts off with "I'm right you're wrong". It's childish.
The fact is that all browser companies have their problems. I'm interested only in the technical aspects. For example, why is there a whole spec sheet of config settings to make Firefox private against Mozilla? Why does Mozilla continue to install spyware alongside Windows installations (default browser task) ? Why do I have to remove feature plugins, with each major update that assist Mozilla with telemetry and adware, despite Mozilla claiming to have removed those long ago? Why do I have to turn off Normandy? Why should Normandy exist in a so called private browser?
This is what I'm looking for... Not "I'm right you're wrong".
"If someone recommends Brave to you, you should ignore them, because they are wrong."
I stopped reading here. If you would like to present objective technical arguments, please try not to sound like a 5 year old "I'm right, you're wrong, blah blah".
Use Brave or use Firefox. They both work great for privacy, but I find Brave is easier to configure to be private.
For me, I used to love Sync for Reddit for a long time, until he switched to Material You without a real option to go back. Material You is just plain ugly.
Now that I'm on Lemmy, I stumbled across Summit, which looks good and performs good.
Too many people here seem to be too focused on cryptocurrency and ignore the data mining that Firefox does, even when you turn off telemetry collection in Firefox settings.
I'm not saying Firefox is bad, but cryptocurrency issues of brave don't compare to the data mining of Firefox. Use what you prefer, as either are very good browsers when setup right.
So I just got here to Lemmy, and only briefly have checked out some of the apps, but Connect is my favorite so far. It looks good and let's me hide posts.
