I've been seeing a lot of people hate and uninstall Brave. Why? It's not like they're tracking us or doing anything else shady. If so, what's the privacy alternative?

Brave fucks with crypto. Never fuck with crypto. It's also Chromium, which means they're complicit in Google's efforts to DRM the internet.

The complicit part is the most bullshit thing I have ever heard.

They said unequivocally that they won't support it, just like they didn't support Manifest V3.

It still is more browser share for Chromium. Business owners will see that share and use it as part of the business case in implementing WEI. If you want it stopped, you gotta use a real alternative such as Firefox.

Yeah, but op asks why people are anti brave not pro Firefox

Because it is still Chromium... With crypto BS
