>thousands of SJWs
I don't think there are even that many anymore. They're just very loud.

it was over before it even began.

Disabled by default. Stop spreading this FUD.

and you get paid to view the ads if you turn it on.

And these ads are not connected with jewgle

>and you get paid to view the ads if you turn it on.
is this real

probably no tracking ads whatsoever, but I haven't checked.

>SJWs
>work

You mean the pajeets do all the work and the SJWs profit while bitching on twitter. Nothing has changed. You guys are just the whites who were dumb enough to miss the train.

>paid based on which and how many ads you view
>no tracking

It's not implemented yet, but I think the idea is that brave shows you ads, you get paid in some cryptocurrency. They also allow you to selectively donate this coin to the specific sites you like.

>one has(had) good extensions

>one is trying to get rich

Hmmm. That's a good deal I guess. But let me see the offer first. Also if the other browsers offer this kind of an agreement nobody would block ads.

a lot of privacy stuff is built into the browser, such as cookie settings, adblocker, script blocker, fingerprinting protection, and HTTPS everywhere.
That stuff is all a part of the browser, and thus doesn't need to be an extension. Sadly, I do have to agree that the extension support is pretty garbage right now. I'm personally just waiting on Vimium, which thankfully should be coming soon.

how can they not even be considering greasemonkey yet?

>just waiting on Vimium
Vimium is going to be just as horrible as it is in Chrome now.
Meanwhile in Firefox there's an extensive list of apis currently being developed specifically to support the use cases of vim extensions.

Here's the offer
brave.com/about-ad-replacement/
Basically they will block any ads that are botnet, allow you to replace them with their own ads, and if you do that, you get money from it, which you can either have for yourself, or donate to sites you like.

userscript support is the only thing I'm waiting for so I can make Brave my default

Is Brave the chad approved browser?

How do we know they're blocking "the ads with the botnet"? I'm pretty sure there're no open source ads or something so how de we trust them?

>a new safe language so that we can eliminate an entire class of bugs and security issues once and for all
Then why is all useful software written with the safety features off?

>fork chromium
>add an adblocker
>shill it to trump fans as the 'uncucked browser'
>get free money from them viewing 'Brave ads'
wow capitalism sure does benefit hard workers

Mostly referring to the part about blocking tracking ads there. I hope they give more info about the finer details like that in the future. For now, I'm not enabling it. It's not even done yet. If you do enable now, the ads just get replaced with ones that all link you to that url.

>Then why is all useful software written with the safety features off?
Even Rust itself has barely any unsafe code and most of it is actually calls to the LLVM C api.

Nice try though.

how can faggots like you no even bother to do a quick 5 second google search before spouting garbage?

That add-on is literally on their to-do list on their git-hub page.

BAT?

the free market will always win. if your software is so shit that most people want it even if you give it away for free you will go down. foss/libre commies eternally btfo

coinmarketcap.com/currencies/basic-attention-token/

To be fair, it's way back in that to-do list.

Here's something else found on their github
github.com/brave/browser-laptop/wiki/Brave-Tor-Support

lel is the rust compiler now the poster child of rust? just like with haskell? stillbirth language fanboys are the worst retard.

based google!

Is it better than Opera yet?

This. Chrome has won, autists simply need to accept this.

Here is explained more clearly.

And yes, Brave ads, unlike normal ads, don't have tracking pixels.

I will donate to sites that do not track. I won't miss $5 a month in BAT anyway

>the poster child of rust
That would be Servo.

xmonad xD

>one is a part of the third (including IE) most-used browser in the world and the other is a niche window manager

The original point was that a large majority of your code will be written in safe Rust. In the case of Servo that's 50 times less potentially vulnerable code.

You can try violentmonkey for now by replacing a current addon in their list.

community.brave.com/t/add-violentmonkey-to-extensions-list/8844

lol it seems the Brave team are holding back. They should allow testing of extensions

Mozilla people get paid well just like Wikipedia people, though of course they didn't become rich overnight from a P&D ICO like the Brave devs

Looks pretty nice.

I use Waterfox, with Brave as a backup.

This is a weird way to test extensions, but it works. Other than that you gotta build from the source. They should make it easier.

Yeah, I know what BAT is, but how is it related to brave?

they use it to pay advertisers, or users for viewing ads

>Thousands of SJWs foaming at the mouth trying to censor the internet
And censor developers by spreading the disease known as Rust.

I'll switch over the second they fucking let me use ublock origin
the built-in adblocker is shit

this

>Buy shitty $100 comp
>Write algorithm that simulates realistic web viewing
>Run it constantly
>Rake in ad revenue without ever looking at an ad

what's wrong with it? didn't give me any problems so far.

>not using suckless surf
bloat

>or users for viewing ads
Why?
I thought the idea of advertisement started with getting a controlled public message to the potential customers.
I don't know if advertisement works at all, but assuming it does work for 1%(working meaning swaying someone who isn't already a customer to become a customer) you are people for no reason.
With original advertisement, you pay a distribution network to distribute the message.
Paying people directly what the network ask for might seem like a reasonable idea, but it is a lot easier to control a few networks and make sure they broadcast the messages than controlling if a million people actually watch the commercials.
I mean, you could setup a system where where every url you type is sent to a copy of brave so you get money without ever watching the advertisement.

Ok here's the thing
I'm using nightly but Firefox keeps getting shittier imo by trying to be a chrome clone
Is waterfox really a good alternative, or should I start considering Brave?
What is most important for me is (in order of importance)
A)All the tinfoil stuff, no tracking, no fingerprinting, everything encrypted and stored locally
B) Fast, but without sacrificing anything in A
C) Tree style tabs
D) Vimium
E) Option to edit the themes in a stylish-tier mode
F) Devs not forcing any kind of politics down my throat, SJW or not

Brave has no marketshare at all, only thing its doing is burning VC money on developer salaries. Even Vivaldi and Pale Meme register some marketshare
