@EvilCartyen I would suggest removing proton services and brave growers though

@mensrea I think the most important thing is to break the monopoly, not exactly what people decide to replace it with.
I don't personally use Brave - I did for a little bit, but I was turned off by the cryptobro vibe - but I am not going to browsershame people trying to degoogle.
Proton - maybe, yes, but for now they are still the most convenient way to degoogle some critical personal digital infrastructure. But they're on notice for sure...

@EvilCartyen it's not browser shaming though. You are giving advice and vouching for brave. A browser that does sketchy this, made by a sketchy company, owned by toxic people

@mensrea I don't know much about Brave except I didn't like it much, but I'll be happy to mention or remove it if they're super sketchy. Got a source I need to look at? :)
