Made my day! Who said these weasels can't be funny?
Back then, Steve Jobs was personally really picky about that very thing. If it didn't just work in any major way, Steve was all over it and chewed people up over it. He was all about things being the way they were advertised to the public. But he was a rare type of CEO that cared about detail compared to everyone else in tech from what I remember.
Its almost like its the dominant browser in the world and provides the backend for the majority of the world's browser software because developers like open source software... Weird that people like freedom.
Why would I bother? Everyone seems to think Google and Alphabet are absolute devils of the world, so why would I argue with children who profess it as if it is the gospel.
Brave also helps with the look of Chrome's dominance since it looks like Chrome according to most web stats I use via first party (since Brace blocks all third party tracking).
There are now basically four engines too: Blink, WebKit, Quantum/Gecko and Goanna (used by Pale Moon). Full list can be found at Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_browser_engines
Chrome is the new IE, which engine wise is great but surveillance wise is another story.
Based on what pops up on YouTube, this certainly seems to be the case. Despite using an AdBlocket, Safari, and never logging into Google.
You should know, Brave = Chromium. This realtime protection is part of the engine.

Title is a bit misleading or enthusiastic, because the only kind of protection we get is : "Let's send all your URLs to some misty, cloudy, er, targeted ad platform, so, you know, you are better, er, protected".
I wish I can but chrome on iOS can let some sites function while safari completely ****** them. Keep in mind I’m talking about iOS safari, which is absurd to see such discrepancies.
Why should I trust a megacorp? For what? They don’t give me money by virtue of me pledging trust To them.
Nah, your device will likely have some sort of lesser know supportive software developed by google. Also chromium is a thing which has links to google.
Oh wow… mind blowing improvements by switching to online real time checking against a larger database. Marketing team got an easy assignment this time.
Yeah, because, it works?
Cause almost any other option involves taking action to do research and understand the underlying issue themselves, which is infinitely worse than “just believe”.
Yeah how about those 60% some people just pick chrome because it works?
I use several big websites (shopify, eBay, amazon etc) during my work and safari performs the worst in terms of rendering speed, website functionality, stability and more.
Get A better adblocker.
Because chrome just works?
You are the only one~ You are the chosen one~
Uhh because they just want a browser that’s useable and familiar? Also technically speaking buying an iPhone is buying a spying hardware, so I don’t see adding one more hurts awful too much.
It works? Like literally every other browser that exists. lol.Oh wow… mind blowing improvements by switching to online real time checking against a larger database. Marketing team got an easy assignment this time.

Because pretty much every browser out there uses chromium aside from firefox and safari. So yeah, it does “just work.”
Yeah because every browser is competent except Safari, and their support has been lacking despite years of locked down advantage from Apple.
