I don’t know if I am missing a point or not but I don’t exactly quiet get the hype as to me, it just chrome with poor man’s uBlock Origin and their own crypto in the mix.
Like how it that different from me using ether Librewolf or even Google Chromium and install uBlock Origin compare to Brave?

One problem with LibreWolf is that it has very weak security. The exact same goes for FF and other FF based browsers.
The Chromium monopoly sucks tho.
Edit: grammar. :p
What’s this about weak security? Do you have something to read about that?
No, he is just another victim of madaidan/Spengler/GrapheneOS church propaganda.
From the same author as one of the best linux hardening guides: https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/firefox-chromium.html
One of the best… you mean toilet papers of the internet, repeatedly trashed by r/linux and HN users?

madaidan is an admin of GrapheneOS, NoGoolag, SpiteChat communities/chatrooms across various platforms. The “insecurities” blog chap, notorious for a lot of misinformation in FOSS and Linux communities but opposite in a big chunk of mainstream privacy community. A staple of the “redditor hackerman” starterpack, for people who know nothing better.
He knows literally nothing and has proven his credentials https://i.imgur.com/UHhQRIU.jpg and https://i.imgur.com/FiYhbkk.jpg, among many other places.
Whew, the cringe is immense from both sides in that post
Be grateful for the transparency I portray, and for presenting what people otherwise would never have known. Even I see it as a bit cringey, but I was neck deep into privacy community back then, and you have to use certain lingo to mesh with that crowd.
If I told you madaidan used to (probably still moderates) NSFW subreddits years ago, you would be shell shocked.
a) I would have no idea who that person is if I hadn’t seen this post today
b) I really don’t see what the problem is with them being the mod of a couple of NSFW subs? Especially since they said they’re all just jokes and basically empty?
Well… seriously, go and read those archived r/linux and HN comments. This fellow here is pretty well known in privacy community to be basically someone who shits on Linux and praises Windows and MacOS security. This person and Brad Spengler were the ones to begin this trend of Big Tech “security” apologia in privacy community, which has become a disease with GrapheneOS on the mobile side of things now.
These specimens/entities coincidentally praise the security of Windows, MacOS, Google Pixel, Apple Secure Enclave, while calling Linux and FOSS projects horrible nightmare all the time, consistently. Moreover, they also coincidentally happen to call PRISM Snowden and Assange revelations irrelevant jokes (see https://web.archive.org/web/20220418214232/https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/iox6rq/should_i_get_an_iphone_if_i_value_privacy/ or https://i.imgur.com/xcryYvM.jpg).
There is a lot to it, and its hard to form a gist of it other than these entities being extremely dangerous to and being the equivalent of termites to privacy community, everywhere one exists.

I literally only read their linux hardening guide and that article on browsers. And both of them seemed me pretty good.
I might ignore their activities on social media tho. I’m reading the links right to help my ignorance.
Can you go into more detail about Librewolf having weak security? This is news to me.
Compared to Chromium.*
Not only LibreWolf but every FF based one.
You can check out this article since it explains it better than me: https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/firefox-chromium.html
While it’s not about the most recent version most if not all of its points are still true.
Let me provide you a little more on the subject.

The job of madaidan/Spengler/GrapheneOS church is to hate and destroy FLOSS projects that condemn their actions or do not fall in line with them, and even attempt witch hunts on people that criticise them. I was a victim of it last year, as they hijacked the Matrix room of this very community (which I was unable to save since admins did not listen to me) and attempted to create fabricate projection lies against me because I moderate this place. https://archive.ph/acy2h

Coming back after some time, thanks for giving me another point of view. Sorry that shit happened to you.
@SrEstegosaurio @coldhotman why does it have weaker security than Chromium browsers?
Edit: saw this in the comments: madaidans-insecurities.github.…
Then get off the internet, none if it is secure.
Generally speaking is true that our security standars are incredibly low and that’s becoming more and more dangerous as time goes. Even moreso in our hyper-digitalized society.
But I fail to understand what does that have to do with the fact that FF is less secure than Chromium. May you develop, please?
