I am boycotting brave because of its sizeable amount of controversies and because it is American. I have decided to swap to Vivaldi but I have noticed a significant performance decrease on Speedometer 3.1 Benchmarks. Furthermore, according to EFF Cover my Tracks I now have a unique finger print and am easier to track.

My setup consists of using uBlock Origin (normal not lite) instead of Vivaldi’s built in tracker & ad blocker.

    vivaldi would be the best browser for me (too and im boycotting too, im euro) but in there is so much shit i dont need. i have given up on firefox and its forks after 13 years…
    both are chromium, so idk how they can be as fast as brave with a browser so full of “features” and less developers.
