The only people using Facebook these days either don’t know what addons/extentions are, or they are forced to use it through work/business.

In 2020 it was used at least in part on over 80% of websites according to w3techs.
There might be some bias involved based on the third paragraph:
The good news is that users can opt out of this data collection by deselecting it during the installation process. However, the process isn’t too straightforward either unlike AMD, which explicitly asks the user whether they want to opt out of data collection. Nvidia, however, enables and installs its Telemetry components by default and users are unable to opt out of it.
The ceo is a bigoted asshole, Brave is chromium, it was initially funded by Peter Thiel and they’re literally just trying to make their own adsense network.
The self-proclaimed privacy focused browser is tracking your browsing and want to serve you personalized ads, and I think they want to use that tracking data for AI training as well, meaning other people can potentially access it.
And lets not forget about their crypto currency that you can earn by turning on special ads. Which they seemingly unironically called it “Basic Attent Tokens”…
TL;DR: The company is basically a sham company trying to usher in a dystopia. Where you’ll get paid for staring at ads, while having all your data stolen and sold back to you.
It’s a joke post. Which makes it extra funny, and quite sad, how many of the comment seem to think it’s serious and are unironically chiming in with complaints.
OPs username is “Peter Poopshit”, I wouldn’t take anything they post seriously.
It’s the conspiracy theorist mindset:
They’re people who wish they were smart, and can’t handle that they’re not. So they latch onto ideas that most people agree are dumb. Then use that to convince themselves that they’re super geniuses who have realized the truth of something that even scientists couldn’t figure out.
Then when they’re challenged with evidence or facts, they double down and start insulting or even assaulting people in response. Because they don’t see it as evidence in an argument, they just think the other person is calling them stupid and that really strikes a nerve.
TL;DR: They’re in denial and project their own self-hatred onto others.
I think they’re trying to implement a sort of “smart prediction” thing, where it assumes that if you go back the link you clicked wasn’t relevant. And so it tries to remove closely related results. Which works the opposite if you get two results from the same page and you click the wrong one. Which makes looking up technical or programming related issues a nightmare.
With the TL;DR being: Google/Alphabet wants to more easily block non-chrome browsers ability to use their services, and prevent the use of adblocking.
Which also means that many people using accessability tools will be unable to access them. And they are trying to get Firefox to implement it as well, so they don’t take all the blame when shit hits the fan and they start getting multi-billion dollar monopoly fines from the EU.
Are you trying to make a joke? Or did you not get that the comment you replied to is also a joke?
He had x.com before that.
He’s going full circle by now having it redirect to twitter, and will probably be the main page soon.
Don’t forget that Duck Duck Go is even worse at it now. It will literally change your results if you go back after clicking a link.

Have fun.
It’s the classic of asking people who make unironically sexist jokes to explain what exactly makes it funny.
They tend to either shut up in embarrassment or start talking about how you just don’t “get” the humor and try to move on. Because they know they can’t explain it without looking like an asshole.
I’m guessing it will be magically overwritten a few seconds before it ends.
Of course he didn’t respond to the 32bit removal, he made his stance pretty clear over a decade ago. The author even said he knew what the answer would be, because how could you be a kernel maintainer without knowing about that email.
Even if only spend a few hours a month watching, it’s still pretty cheap entertainment.
Hell, some good beers while binging a season will literally cost more than the monthly fee.
Not to mention the regular occurances of people asking you to locate something they’ve stuck inside themselves.
So like how doctors are oppressing death and disease?
No this was literally just a part of the contingency plan.
The whole point of their API change is literally to push out anyone even mildly tech-savvy, and keep all the people who blindly just scroll through posts and consume the ads just like other content.
