Laurie VossI don't know why I have to tell people "don't use the browser which is also a crypto scam and run by a famous homophobe" but apparently I do. Don't use Brave. https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux/111447997418108806
Taylor@seldo Any suggestions for iOS devices? AFAIA Brave is the only browser that blocks ads without being pestered to disable my adblocker
Focally Unhinged@virtualtaylor @seldo i likewise didn’t know. just (finally) did a bit of research while at work to confirm it. damn, and completely my bad. so, yeah, what to use in lieu of Brave on iOS/macOS that also isn’t Google? bah. time to start searching again.
@virtualtaylor @seldo I am now exploring Vivaldi Browser (Chromium) on iOS and macOS. Headed by the guy who founded Opera back in the day. Seems pretty decent, but isn’t blocking the bad actors natively as i might’ve hoped; which is fine, just gotta get an extension.
@focalranges @seldo Im liking Vivaldi so far, just has minor issues like anti-ad blocker popups, and think I saw promoted ads on old.reddit. Otherwise it’s great
Safari w/ad blocker was the best and thanks for the rec @mathew@universeodon, just wish I could install it on my Windows PC for syncing.
