Yeah brave has it own issue, but overall it is still more privacy respecting than chrome or edge. Brave is personally not my choice. I use librewolf. Still, if someone ask me for a browser to use for their privacy journey I will undoubtedly tell them to just use brave. Firefox(and the forks) isn't a choice for most normal people it often break Captcha. Some website even straight up just don't allow Firefox based then tell you to use chrome. I am not by anyway try to defend Brave action, but I can't see much choice that just work for people who don't even know what an OS is.

Do you have source?
Did they fix the issue of their license partially closed? Or is it still the same
Mullvad don't have port forwarding anymore (since 2023 I think) so seeding won't work properly.
Last time I checked, it do require login with Google account. It is long time ago tho, so idk if it is still the case.
So it feel more mangaish? Like the way they keep oni san? That is my best guess rn.
Use obtainium to download the latest release
People will tell you that everything is a honeypot. In fact, I am a honeypot
So it is an American thing then? I feel sorry for you to experience that. But I personally never see anyone even use it in a racism way. Probably because of my own ignorance like you said. The internet is open tho. It is not just for US culture/culture issue. So honestly for the rest of the world, I do not think it is an issue at all. Maybe we can try to resolve it in some way? Idk
I know that I am overly paranoid but they do the weird user ID thing. It it opt in as they said in their privacy policy.
At least to my knowledge brave do not do anything like this or maybe it is opt out by default. But honesty, I think from now, I will recommend both of them and just let people choose.
