@jarkko I'm afraid you may be hated for using/supporting Brave.

@oleksandr All main browser are horrible slop right now. I don't see almost any difference. I don't use pre-existing Brave because it is equally full of random useless features. There's no IMHO safe haven't. EVERYTHING sucks right now I suppose...

"Brave Software was founded in 2015 by Brendan Eich, creator of JavaScript and former Mozilla CEO who left the organization after coming under fire for his support of eliminating the right of same-sex couples to marry, and Brian Bondy, a programmer who had formerly worked at Mozilla."

I actually did not know this. Normally I don't want let other issues than qualities of the software itself to dictate my choice but opposing same-sex marriage is just too weird for me... I don't fully trust his judgement, not really a question of politics.

@oleksandr e.g., i don't pick my software based on whether the author voted/supports left or right wing but opposing same sex marriage is just inhumane. Absolutely nothing to do with politics :-)
