My family already knows I'm a weirdo, but for security reasons - cuz a famous right wing piece if shit doxxed me and wrote an article about me that put my life in danger - I switched to the brave browser. I use Google as a search engine, but I erased any personal info from Chrome.

The ONLY reason I don't get rid of chrome altogether is because I have a YouTube channel and evidently if I erase Chrome completely I'll lose access to my channel 
 @095e5c5b @a0e12fb8 Really sorry to hear about getting harassed by reactionaries. That sucks.

Brave is mostly just worse though. All browsers have tradeoffs but you probably want Firefox if you’re primarily concerned about privacy. For their latest scandal, https://stackdiary.com/brave-selling-copyrighted-data-for-ai-training/

Sounds like a legitimate concern over Brave Search API and respecting copyrights but what is "worse" about Brave Browser?
