    What’s going on with the header image? You’ve got Google Chrome, YouTube and Xitter in one hand, Bitcoin, Ethereum and Brave browser in the other and you’re bridging the gap by fusing your index fingers together?

    Were it not for the illustrator credit I’d assume it was generated. (No shade intended to Alexandra Francis, I wouldn’t want to bring my A-game either if I had to work for this kind of bullshit.)

      I hope for the most people here the dubious history of the Brave browser is well known right?

        Oh absolutely, though among the others listed it doesn’t particularly stand out.

          Yes, true. You would expect SO to know better, but alas.

            Most programmers are programmers and a lot of programmers really do inexplicably find selling points like these compelling:

            • Boo hoo I got canceled for being a homophobic wingnut. Mozilla has gone woke. Install this chromium fork #93726 to own the libs!
            • Tired of ads (which, for all their numerous faults, usually at least fund the websites you use)? Watch our ads instead and waste a shitton of electricity to get paid in our monopoly money scrip for the privilege!

              Technically correct the best kind of correct.

        It’s on one side with Bitcoin and Ethereum, even if you didn’t know about Brave before, seeing it there would immediatelly throw it into the bin compartment of your brain.
