    I’ve been using Brave for over a year now and really like it. Nearly all the functionality of Chrome with none of the privacy issues.

      You should consider switching to firefox. Brave will be affected by the elimination of Manifest V2, essentially killing privacy on chromium browsers (ubo doesnt work as well, privacy badger is useless, etc). An extremely easy way to switch to firefox without the hassle of configuring it be to private is to download the “Librewolf” fork - comes configured at stock with 99% of the privacy features firefox has.

        I’m very concerned with this change. What incentive will app developers have to ensure their apps run in Firefox if they know Chrome will force users to see ads and be targeted for marketing?

        How does one do this? What is a fork? Is it an extension or different app altogether? Sorry, new to the privacy game.
