Brave lost my support when they added the Brave Today news feed feature and defaulted all the fucking propaganda outlets on.

Nice list, huge fan of Dissenter so far. Basically Brave with even more of an emphasis on privacy.

I was a fan of Dissenter as well until another tech pede pointed out that it’s not actively being patched for security. Personally I just killed the Brave Today bullshit, but I’d go Degoogled Chromium if I didn’t want to deal with them at all.

Oh, wonderful. I didn't realize they weren't bringing in patches from Brave. (sigh)

If it became actively maintained again I do believe it would be superior. Reaching out to the current repo manager is on my to do list for this coming week. More alternatives, even more so if they’re forking a solid code base, is rarely a bad thing.

You have to look at the entire picture and scrutinize everything. You must think that shit is just an oversight but I think it's them virtue signaling to say "Please don't hate us, Silicon Valley leftists!" For fuck's sake, they have Vice, Buzzfeed and BBC on by default.

Just once I'd like to see one of these orgs recommend Breitbart on their list of defaults. Just fucking once. But you know why: the lefties would boycott if they saw that.

Well, we need to fight, too. We need to move the Overton window back. There's nothing fringe about Breitbart.

I agree. I still read breitbart but it hasn't been the same since Bannon. Who was the last writer to shake the tree Mylo? Feminism is cancer!! He was right then and still now!!
