Warning to all Brave Browser Users
Blocking variations.brave.com which is used for A/B testing could potentially break Brave’s functionalities. For me did Brave’s “forgetful browsing” feature broke which seems to be disabled by default if you block this domain.
You really just shouldn’t use brave…
Its better than Chrome, Edge, and any other proprietary spyware browser
Firefox based browsers exits and if you need chromium based there are also other degooled browser available.
True but don’t you think brave is better than chrome?
In the same way that I think 3rd degree burns are better than 4th degree burns
I think you mean 3rd degree burns compared to second degree burns but I get what you are saying
? 4th degree burn is a real thing
True but its basicly the same as 3rd degree burn. You will basicly never see it in the field
Check out Vivaldi then.
so what you want people to use opera or Chromnius
Use a fork of firefox
Or just use firefox?
Stock Firefox is almost as bad as Google Chrome
Idk wtf you’re saying. You mean stock firefox as in firefox with no settings changed? If so, it’s not great but in no way as bad as chrome. That’s just a ridiculous statement. That being said, hardened Firefox is fine and it’s not very hard to do. By harden i mean common sense tweaks. I don’t use arkenfox or anything. I think it’s overkill at that point.
None of these. Use Firefox.
Anyoneserioius about privacy should not be using a chromium browser, and should definitely not be using brave.
Firefox is safer and tbh, has probably the best UX and aesthetics out of anyone. Brave is garbage.
As a Firefox user, the only thing Brave does that I wish Firefox would copy is their fingerprinting resistance. I know Firefox does have fingerprinting resistance but it’s nowhere near the same level as Brave.
No. Firefox with RFP, Arkenfox user.js, Librewolf or Tor-Browser unifies your fingerprint. Its universal among users. Brave scrambles it, while some may say that is actually not a real fingerprint and can be detected, making you stand out extremely
Just to be clear, are you saying Firefox with fingerprinting resistance used in conjunction with Arkenfox user.js provides fingerprint unification, similar to what Tor browser does? I’ll have to check that out.
I think both approaches are valid tbh. Having a unique fingerprint obviously uniquely identified you, but if it’s randomised then your browsing sessions can’t (in theory) be linked.
The Chameleon extension could solve some of the fingerprinting issues as it can randomize the browser and OS info that is sent.
