This article did not present a compelling case for abandoning brave. Who cares what the founder thinks about various political issues. If the software is good, then that’s all that matters.
Don’t get me wrong, I support same sex marriage, but people have a right to oppose the concept as marriage is a government idea that is tied up in politics.
- I oppose marriage ad an institution
- Did you only make it past the first paragraph? Cause you missed the years of scummy shit they've done, completely unrelated to politics.
  
  Your question doesn’t make sense. But anyway, I read the rest of the article, but very quickly as I found it to be unconvincing from the start.
  The adding shit to the URL is scummy but that’s no longer there. The author spends an excessive amount of time on this issue Eva use it’s no longer there. It was a bad move by Brave, but they retracted from it pretty quickly it seems.
  The crypto stuff doesn’t bother me. I am not anti crypto. I think it’s an interesting technology that has potential. A lot of people, I think, are lashing out against crypto because they don’t understand it and there are too many crypto bros.

  Agree. I voted for SSM in Australia. Honestly I think government has no business in relationships but it does for basically healthcare and taxation. How much of modern tech was built off Nazi or other evil creator tech, where do we draw the line? I'm sure Eich isn't the only CIS white male CEO that is anti-SSM but isn't open about it. It comes with a lot of religious bigotry. Do we refuse to use products that faith holders develop?
  How about let users choose their experience. IMHO Firefox has a long way to go to recover its golden years and the mobile app is in fact crap so it won't lure me back until performance is fixed. Until then Vivaldi is my main.
- People have a right to support slavery as a government idea that is tied up in politics. /s
  
  What’s your logic? That slavery and same sex marriage are similar?
  
  That owning slaves is wrong and denying rights to gay people is wrong and treating it as a political issue where both sides are valid is nonsensical.
