Brave being led by an absolute asshole does indeed make it less palatable as a main browser to me. It's on the list, right after the crypto stuff and the full page ads on the new tab screen that are enabled by default.

It's still the best Chromelike that's easily available, but I'm not switching my default any time soon.

I mean he also invented the fucking JavaScript.

At that rate one needs to abolish all modern technology and go tribal. Cause I’m certain my toothbrush runs JavaScript.

There is an obvious difference between someone who is still actively involved in running something and working on it, profiting from it's success in the market, and using something someone invented but is no longer leading development of or profiting from.

It's normal and reasonable to discover someone who makes bad decisions is running something and decide that makes using it a higher risk for you. Sometimes you don't have a choice, but sometimes you do.

> so you're already half a fascist for using Brave,
