    To be fair to the video, it presented alternative browsers for those who either aren’t happy about recent Firefox changes, or users who want a secondary browser. I’m not a fan of Brave personally, but the video never really makes the claim that Brave is objectively better than Firefox

      “better” is kind of implied when you suggest “alternatives”.

        Is it really? I’d say an alternative is generally just “another option that has (more or less) the same features”. Better isn’t really implied, as that’s someone’s subjective opinion.

          why would you bother looking for an alternative with more or less the same features?

          because the implication is the app you are using now is unacceptable in some way, and the alternatives are not, hence “better”.

        Only with context, which is kind of what I was trying to say. The context was Firefox users who are not happy with its current direction, or people looking for a secondary browser. That kind of makes the only necessary criteria “Not Firefox”. Everything else is the creator’s opinions of which ones you “must try”.

          exactly, context is important when comparing firefox to brave. firefox is being held to a high ethical standard here where brave is not.
