Yeah but Brave? Why not Firefox or Vivaldi.

For god sakes don’t use Brave. Brave has been caught doing shady shit in the past, and the CEO is a piece of shit on top of that.

Use Firefox with privacy addons.

Brave is garbage. It's a cryptoscam adscam browser based on Chrome. For the love of god, use Firefox (or Vivaldi if you absolutely need chromium)

Chart is a little misleading starting at 7% instead of zero, but still a nice surge nevertheless.

That graph is trash. The baseline needs to be at zero.

Brave would definitely not be my choice 😂

I mean sure I guess... but brave as a browser is atrocious. I don't trust their bullshit at all.

After all who doesn't want a crypto wallet in their browser? that's the safest place for it right?

Reminder that this graph does not start at zero. Still a ~(EDIT: 50)% increase.

I've been using Firefox on my android phones for years though, I don't remember it ever being more involved then setting it as default on the popup on first launch.

Still wouldn't touch Brave Browser due to their past crypto shenanigans.

I hate how they cut off the graph...

The axis is somewhat misleading. A jump from 8k to 11k installs is nothing.

Edit: just saw from the comments this is the number of installs per day so its bigger than I thought

They are probably just trying to pump their token with these posts.

Misleading graph trying to make a 150% increase look like a 1000% increase.

That graph looks exaggerated but this is over a few days which is crazy

I'm so glad they included a key otherwise I wouldn't know what the green line represented.

That doesn't surprise me, and yes it was always because of anti-competitive practices, so I'm all for more neutrality, I'll just add 2 shower thoughts:

1. Seeing that Brave is at the top of the browser list, I wonder how many selected Brave just because it's at the top of the list and thought that this must be a good choice then, not because they actually like Brave.
2. It's nice to have such a thing for browsers, but it would have to be expanded to other apps as well, e.g. mail client. Oh well, maybe in another 10 years or so.
