๐Ÿš€ Oh, the irony! #Brave, the "maverick" #browser that boasts ad-blocking superpowers, hits a brick wall because #Rust can't handle a few pesky #redirects. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ Maybe they should try duct tape and a bit of wishful thinking next time!

Redirections blocking ยท Issue #43098 ยท brave/brave-browser

Hi, this is a simple feature request. The proposal is to introduce a setting to block specific website(s) from redirecting the user to urls which do not originate in the same website. This will hel...

I am playing with @Vivaldi after learning that #Brave and #Firefox are going down the toilet, privacy- and AI-enhancement-wise. I want to shift, b/c #privacymatters.

I remember (I think) #Snowden said something like #privacy might not matter to the average individual with nothing to hide, but if we don't all protect it, then it won't be there for those who need it.

Also, fuck #advertising and the #techbros of #enshittification.

A web browser is easy to use when it combines a clean, intuitive interface with fast performance and robust accessibility features. here is 7 Key Features That Make a Browser Easy to Use in 2026

Sigo jugando con la memoria en #linux ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

En un sistema con 16GiB de RAM he configurado un mountpoint con #tmpfs para la cache de #firefox.

En otro sistema, con 8GiB de RAM, he configurado un mountpoint con #zram para la cache de #brave, porque la memoria es mรกs escasa.

Por el momento ambos van sรบper fluidos!

Lo voy a testear, y luego sacarรฉ mis conclusiones, y publicarรฉ resultados en el blog de #juncotic y en el canal de youtube.

Por si quieren sumarse ๐Ÿ‘‡

Brave is aiming to make .agent domains managed by the community of agentic web builders. Users can claim up to 3 domains and 7 extra after submitting an endorsement for the ICANN application. h/t @kernelkook

Not a dig against DDG but I was using Brave and DuckDuckGo interchangeably for certain things.
Now I see what DuckDuck's AI is built on, so will prefer Brave Ask going forward for lightweight AI.
I still LOVE your browser and normal search DuckDuck. โค๏ธ

@axels my favorite tool doesn't exist.

In today's current online environment, if you don't want your online behavior following you around, you need to shake your device fingerprint. There's no way around that, really. For some people, this looks like a multi-login #browser for others, it's just using different browsers for different tasks. The #tech simply does not exist to allow the average consumer to stop trackers from following them everywhere they go on the #internet.

When an adversary can link your behavior across sites and sessions, that gives them the ability to build a comprehensive profile of who you are. Your hobbies, interests, schedule, habits, worries, and beliefs all crammed into one profile.

I've found that I can successfully make my device appear as another device by modifying HTTPS headers, #JavaScript, TLS fingerprint, and network telemetry values (like TTL, MSS, window size, etc.). This #privacy approach allows me to scrub my browsers native fingerprint and replace it with a new one.

The key is coherency, though, tools like fingerprintJS can detect mismatches between headers and JS advertised properties and flag the user as a bot. Though, browsers like #firefox, #brave, and #duckduckgo do a good job of mitigating many of these fingerprinting techniques.

I've developed some #opensource tooling to give users free control over their data.
