Don't use Brave, it is a mess and sketchy as hell. They have been selling copyrighted material and even injected their own affiliate link when users browsed to Binance.
I do agree with the other parts! It is not that difficult to move away from Google!
No, it's perfectly good and healthy to utterly and completely deplatform and disenfranchise homophobes.
different views
The opinion that LGBT+ people shouldn't have rights is not a valid opinion, and it's dismissive to simply categorize it as a "different view." Democracy means we have the choice to reject anyone who espouses such an anti-human worldview, and it is categorically and objectively good to do so.
Good to know you don't give a fuck about LGBT+ people enough not to use a shitty chromium browser, though. Blocked.
Still gives google a lot of power to decide how the web will function in the future. That some websites don't work in Firefox is a symptom of exactly that problem
It's something about how the Gecko engine is built IIRC. I don't get all the details but TLDR Chromium is a lot easier to abstract into other programs as a plugin and engine and Gecko is harder.
"Some sites give people trouble with Firefox" is more like it. Spoof the user-agent header, and those sites that "work better with Chrome" suddenly work just fine.
the trouble isn't with Firefox, it's with those sites and the developers of that site that can't be botheted to do it properly and cross-browser - it's still a thing and a sane requirement.
It's as simple as buying them (mind you that it's a yearly payment) on a domain platform such as Namecheap or Porkbun.
Then using them requires some setup depending on what you use. I use mine with Protonmail + SimpleLogin and they have a good guide on how to set it up.
