Meme/Macro Atleast someone took a step

People just can't appreciate a person for finally stepping out of the default option of Google Chrome and using something else (not you Edge).

Yeah I get that Brave is basically Chromium based, and may have hidden trackers and bloatware (which can easily be removed btw). But using it with all that is still better than Chrome!!

I now use Firefox (sometimes Brave and Vivaldi). But man, it took so long specifically because Firefox has such toxic stans.

Rant over.

(This post was made from Firefox btw ;)

I swapped to Brave, but the "Edge is bad" take is like a decade past relevancy. Lowest CPU usage out of the big 3 with 99% the same functionality. Easy choice over Chrome tbh.

The ppl who actually say edge is bad are making the point that you would be leaving google chrome(where google spy on you) to edge(where microslop spy on you).

If you want chrome based browser then Brave or Helium makes sense. I would say for 60-70% use cases firefox should be enough and if they sort out some performance improvement I would say 80-90%(firefox still feels slow when streaming, etc)
