I use it because I love how the Gecko engine renders web pages. For some reason, Gecko renders fonts way better than the Chromium engine, that is literally bashing my eyes. There’s something terribly wrong with the Chromium rendering… and I don’t know what it is 😅

That’s awesome! I wish more OS-es follow, especially Debian. Having support for an OS that can cover the whole perceived lifecycle of the hardware is something that was once (in the 2000s) the standard. This is something crucial for businesses, but it’s also great for home users.

I had the same dilemma and I’ve made the switch for one particular reason - my eyes! Chromium font rendering adds some awful blur around each letter and this literally burns my eyes. There might be a way to turn the blur off… IDK.

That said, Brave is an awesome browser. From the Chromium world this is the only thing you can use with peace of mind. Don’t feel guilty or ashamed, or whatever, if you stick with Brave.

Cookies are not evil per se… but data mining companies made them like that.

I’m administrating an online store and cookies are responsible for the customer’s cart, plus their user session / logged in state.

As an admin I adhere to the “golden rule”, thus there are no creepy trackers on store. I don’t like them and I don’t want customers to face the same thing on websites that I manage.

That said, cookies are needed for user session & fraud protection. Instead of nuking cookies we shall kick the trackers out.
