Trust isn’t a sliding scale, bro. If you have reason to distrust slightly, you still have a reason to distrust. You’re just trying to convince yourself one form of a breach of trust isn’t as bad as another.
And honestly, size of the company has little to do with it overall: Brave has been verrrrrrrry fucking shady.
Trust is a sliding scale. The majority of Braves code (at least for their browser) is open source, this means you should at least trust them more than companies whos products are wholly proprietary.
It absolutely is a sliding scale, which is why you trust some people more than others. You have friends you can trust with some things and not others. Same thing with companies. I realize their somewhat shady but a far cry better than those I mentioned.
Overall, no. Compared to Apple, Google, and Microsoft? Yes.

Code is either open source or it’s not. Brave is not fully open source which means you have no proper way of vetting its operation.
From everything I’ve read, it is fully open source. What parts of the browser are not open source?

What is your distrust based on? Just curious to know 😁
Just a general distrust of all companies because they have a habit of using my data for their own purposes.
