    I was with you until you recommended using Brave. I’ll get my privacy advice elsewhere, thank you.

      Yeah, it’s dubious that a chromium derivative founded by an ex-Mozilla engineer who resigned after his anti-gay marriage politics were displayed and partially funded by Peter Thiel is recommended over de-blobbed Firefox derivatives.

    I’d recommend Firefox over Brave. And I’m not sure Proton are worth recommending anymore with all the weird right wing nonsense their CEO is posting.

      @Voroxpete @silence7 something about Proton has never sat right with me. And having seen Brave used in the same sentence as “crypto” put me off them too. I mostly use Fennec or Firefox, with all the dodgy shit turned off

    How about Vivaldi?? I’ve switched since last year and it’s been pretty great of a browser. There’s the focus on privacy, ethical/transparent policies, and its development team are users of fediverse socials!
