I have been thinking about switching to brave for better fingerprinting protection

Never trust anything that comes anywhere near crypto. Firefox with the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s privacy badger plugin and a good adblocker is the way to go. https://privacybadger.org/
I agree the crypto stuff is super annoying, but it’s a really nice and clean browser after you disable all that and tweak the settings (which you’d probably want to go through and configure with a new browser anyway)
even as a crypto user & dev, brave’s crypto shit is annoying af, it’s inferior by far to what everyone else uses & they push it on ur face & make u have to remove it.
i’d rather just use firefox or even microsoft edge, even for crypto stuff
If you want Brave without the crypto crap then spend a minute or two and turn it all off in settings. You’ll never see it again.
Just switch off brave rewards and sponsored content. And, your fork is ready.
Looks like Brave is the best for privacy over all.
https://privacytests.org/That site and testing is run by a Brave employee, right? I’d be very skeptical of Brave’s high scores.
To me, Brave or DuckDuckGo are as malicious as Google
What makes you think about duckduckgo like that?
They are less invasive on the privacy front, but they also push their products much harder down user’s throat due to less revenue from less accurate ads, just look at DDG’s frontpage.
I also found them self-censoring towards IPs from China, albeit this could be the direct result of using Bing’s search results.
It’s much easier to compare it with something like SearXNG which has the same core principle, without ads, without censorships, without invasive marketing.
