Brave is so unsecure because it uses chromium. The only unique thing i saw on brave was the crypto miner included. Chrome can easily just change terms so that brave looses his licence for chromium. Firefox is more secure in the way it is more secure, because they are not focused on stealing your data and there is librewolf yeah that one is open source and is the most secure of those 3
Yep. They definitly added a crypto miner into their opensource code. ๐
It was rumored sometime that they did or even thought about it.
It would be the stupidiest thing ever.

LMAO something other happensd
If you read it, you realize it isn't bad as it sounds and has nothing to do with there browser and really less with trustworthyness of the company in terms of privacy and security. So instead of trying to find evidence why "Brave is bad" make a Pro and Con List for Brave and compare it with the google infected Firefox and you will see why I prefer Brave as the browser of trust and use LibreWolf as second, because it's like a real private version of Firefox.
Ok Chrome but in orange.
This is the reason why I left Reddit, nice to see that the toxicity also arrived Lemmy.
Sorry ๐
