Mozilla Firefox isn’t much better. They have similar links to shady people, often the same shady people… That includes two friends of Jeffrey Epstein.
And Mozilla still engages in discrimination today.
From the linked document, describing an unneeded round of layoffs:
People from groups underrepresented in technology, like female leaders and persons of color, were disproportionately impacted by the [Mozilla’s] layoff.
Lol underrepresented in technology get the f outta here
People here went from “Brave is problematic” to “haha unnecessary layoffs” in no time flat. What’s with the performative cruelty all of a sudden?
Just because you close your eyes and imagine how you want the world to be doesn’t make it the Truth son now go brush your teeth.
This offends a lot of Mozilla stans, but Firefox isn’t much better.

So which browser would you recommend?
It looks like Firefox is the only one not based on Chromium
Firefox has some very good forks including Waterfox (pretty normal) and LibreWolf (pretty privacy-hardened out of the box and may require a little Settings menu tweaking to make normal).
It’s unfortunate, but at the end of the day you kind of have to bite the bullet and accept that you will be using something downstream of something bad, e.g. Google (Chrome forks) or their money (Firefox is funded not by donations but by them).
@[email protected] thoughts? Or was there another criticism you had in mind
Counterpoint, some websites behave better on chromium so using brave as last resort is not as bad.
I haven’t found one that blocks YouTube ads as well as brave does on iPhone.
Yes, I do have uBlock
Vivaldi seems to block adds well to iOS too.
Really the best I’ve found is 1blocker for Safari, but I got that when the lifetime version was a only few dollars. (Imagine subscribing to an ad-blocker! - but than again, how many people donate to ublock?).
OrgunDonorUblock Origin Lite is available for safari and blocks YouTube ads perfectly fine.
maccentricOrion browser lets you use the real deal Ublock Origin
