In light of Mozilla’s recent policy changes, we no longer feel assured that Firefox aligns with our commitment to protect your privacy. This prompted us to revisit the choice of default web browser in Zorin OS 17.3.
What I don’t like about brave is it’s a rip-off of creators. It does not simply block ads, but replaces ads with it’s own, so it profits, the creators get fucked, and in the end you get less quality content as a result, you get fucked. The ethics that went into that make Google look good.
…so they switched to a browser with a known history of breaching that trust?
Seriously, the whole thing with Firefox and their privacy policy is overblown. I understand the concerns, but people gotta chill.
Besides, there aren’t good alternatives out there. The closest is Librewolf and even with that browser it’s hard to work around all the problems that the increased security creates. I couldn’t do half the shit I wanted to do when I tried it and abandonne altogether.
I keep hearing about these problems but I don’t think I’ve seen any using LibreWolf for like…2y or so now? Something like that, long time using, no problems yet.
Is it like facebook or some other nightmare website I avoid like the plague that gives the problems? If it’s news websites, well that’s just news websites, archive is necessary.
Brave is a choice I guess. To each their own. Today I watched a video where a guy was using edge on fedora. That kinda broke my brain.
Well, there wasn’t much danger of me using Zorin before, so that’s fine.
