Why can’t a browser company just be opinionated about making the best browser? Why does it have to have a shitty controversial opinion about social media? I don’t know why, but my trust in the org and therefore the browser itself is gone.
I don’t think being anti white supremacy and homophobia is shitty or controversial. Why would an Internet company write an article about something that affects the biggest sector of the Internet, social media? 🤔
“No they should stay in their lane and only talk about, I don’t know, CSS or something.” I don’t buy it.
Who said anything about white supremacy or homophobia?
Regardless, yes, they should refrain from controversial subjects that are not related to their business. And if they decide to make social media censorship their business in a direct way, also fuck em.
…the article you linked me? The topic of this discussion?
It shouldn’t be controversial to anyone. The suggestions given there are pretty mild.
Regardless, justice is not the absence of conflict. Sorry the article made you upset but that doesn’t make it wrong.
I don’t give a damn about the article. I only stated my reasons why Firefox and Chrome are total deal breakers for me. Maybe there’s a better browser than all of them, but for now I’m happy with Brave.
And your opinion is your opinion, it isn’t universal. Stop thinking that it is.
The opinion:
“Homophobia and white supremacy are bad and should be combated”
It’s interesting that you think firefox is being “controversial” when their CEO writes a couple paragraphs about combating hate speech online, but brave isn’t when their CEO sends money to hate organizations. 🤔
If the user share of Firefox falls too low websites will stop supporting it (which is already happening), we will have given google the internet. Everything that is not Firefox is based on Chrome.
This, because it’s a fucking web browser, and it can be weaponized for bad while pretending to be good.
The article is about social media.
