Why not just not allow it to connect to any internet and use wired printing?

So what if I don’t log in when I use brave? Then it would have no way to get money from me.

I know that. In the title I said that I’m comparing brave to Firefox with ublock

I don’t want to use the crypto, if I just turn it off and use brave as an improved chrome, then which one is better?

uBlock (arguably the best extension) properly only works on Firefox

Isn't brave's adblocker just ublock?

I'm choosing a main browser, and I think that firefox with ublock and brave are probably equally good in terms of privacy and security, both of them look quite nice, and both are FOSS. The final thing that I'm considering is resource consumption. This reddit post shows that firefox is better than brave in benchmarks and ram consumption, but what about when firefox has ublock running and brave has all their preinstalled "extension" like brave rewards and wallet disabled (except brave shields is left enabled)?

Edit: some people are mentioning brave's cryptocurrency. I don't want to use that, and I would just turn it off and use brave as an improved chrome.

If you value privacy, ditch Chrome and switch to Firefox now by first_ad4972 in c/technology@lemmy.world

This article is about the brave search engine collecting data, so would it be fine if I use brave browser but use other search engines like DuckDuckGo or Ecosia?

How is brave compared to firefox in terms of privacy? If they are at least equal brave should be better because chromium-based browsers should have better compatibility on most websites.

By "digital sheet music" I mean sheet music that can be opened in apps like musescore and synthesia (e.g. MIDI, musicxml). I used to download them from musescore.org but recently I found the search function stopped working. Is the site down or migrated to a new url? Now where can I download those digital sheet music?
