sturlabragason,

It seems the main takeaway from these discussions is that we are all fucked because a decent open source non evil independent browser doesn’t exist?

In the age where a browser is about the only thing you need.

Shit.

Somebody needs to pull a Linus Torvalds here.

    Still has a Firefox upstream dependency? Or is it a completely independent fork?

    Same.

    florge,

    Should I stop using Iceraven then?

    68silver,

    Nothing wrong with Iceraven. It gets updates regularly. I use it on all my android devices.

    Herbstzeitlose,

    Please stop the blogspam. Nobody wants to see yet another shitty list.

    efscher,

    Orion doesn’t make the list?

    Don’t care. I’ll keep using it. By the way, Mozilla aren’t the saints you may think they are:

    I’d rather stop to use the web altogether before giving scummy Mozilla any market share again.

    No, the links about Mozilla show how corrupt their directives are. Peole are so eager to scrutiny competing browsers/company and their forgive every shit Mozilla or their board do.

    By the way, who cares about Brave’s CEO? I don’t agree with his political views, but for me their browser it’s the best out there at the moment and the company itself isn’t politically active at all.

    Did you ask any other Mozilla employee what their political views are, by the way? How can you be sure that all of them are “good persons”? Do you buy your stuff on Amazon, by any chance, knowing how evil thy are? Are you sure that your grocery store’s owner/your mechanic/your doctor/etc. isn’t an homophobe or a bad person? Please, be coherent and go and ask all the people you make deals with what their political views are.

  • Engywuck,

    I’m not upset. I may have been unclear. I just find funny that people in the (F)OSS/Linux community (which I’m clearly part of) are very prone to scrutinize Brave and other companies, while they pretend not to see what’s going on at Mozilla, which seems to always get a free pass.

    That’s fine. I was just replying to your comment. Have a nice day.

    smotherlove,

    Lot of talk about Mozilla, but what about Firefox? I’m not using the CEO as my web browser.

    Engywuck,

    I used to like Firefox (been using is since 2002ish…). But after a lot feature removals and, last but not least, the ugly UI redesign (despite the negative feedback in the nightly/beta phase) I just jumped ship. I’m not going to waste my time fixing it with CSSs, unfucking what Mozilla did wrong. Anyway, Brave is just faster, it performs better and has a no-shit UI.

    This, plus the disappointment I’ve had with Mozilla, gives me exactly 0 reason to go back.

    Mozilla itself has provento be nothing but a cash grab, at this point. And people keep falling for it (less and less people over time, fortunately).
