That's great, but what do you think about brave and their cool scam group?
What group?
They call themselves brave software incorporated.
And what sources do you have for these accusitions?
My own experience over several years. You sound like you have a stick up your ass.
Okay this is not leading anywhere. Maybe just stop swearing around and address your wishes in their Discussion forum.
I dont think Brave is "the secure but also private browser solution" but Vanadium is not here yet
Is the word ass really insulting to you? If so I'm genuinely sorry.. But I think you're grasping at straws acting offended because I have a financial grievance with this company. that shouldn't bother you and it's concerning how much energy you're putting into this rebuttal.
I'm working class so whatever losses I felt from my dealings with brave mattered to me. I can't get that money back but I sure as **** can spend my time being loud about the consistently dishonest and shady practices of a company I used to do business with. Brave could have handled one of the dozen or so support tickets I gave them back in 2019-2022
Okay so you lost money through their crypto stuff. Thats a valid point, but just ranting about it doesnt make that clear
I didn't lose money, they forced me through an untrustworthy third party to take my money out. You're being obstinate trying to make this seem like I made a bad investment as opposed to a company being deceitful about it's "payouts".
