    I’m not sure what people are talking about.

    To me it’s just the principle of the thing. A browser replacing ads with it’s own is just… weird. The idea of being paid to be advertised to just makes me feel yuck.

    The thing that comes up over and over is that all the weird stuff is opt-in. “It’s just like firefox, but it has an opt-in homeless person puncher, just in case you ever want that.”

    Ordinarily I try to be as “you do you” as I can, but the thing that kinda rubs me the wrong way about Brave is that there’s so many people so loyal to what seems to me to be a bit weird.

      Why not be loyal if they dont force anything upon you? The homeless person puncher is very far from accurate comparison. I see 0 ads and pay no money for it

        I think you’re missing my point.

        I use Firefox, don’t see any ads, and don’t pay any money.

        What is the point of brave?
