Brave's aggressive marketing
(lemmy.world)
Was reading an answer to the question about fresh Amazon tablet and saw this. They used up the question as a hook to promote their browser. Pretty sure I'm avoiding Brave from now on.
Q: Does the fire max 11 have YouTube app on it. A: I have installed Google Playstore , but I skip installing Youtube app . There is better option . Brave Browser in Playstore !! That thing has AWESOME popup Blocker and it's own integrated Youtube Ads and other Nuisances blocker . My point ? You don't need youtube on Fire max , You don't need Google Maps , You don't need Facebook App . Just Use Brave .
Gentle reminder that Brave's CEO is a known bigot and the browser is just chrome with a few extensions and fresh coat of paint.
You're selling them short. They also developed some crypto shit to shoehorn into it.
Isn't he a Blockchain/crypto grifter as well?

Typescript is just Javascript with a few extra features sprinkled ontop such as static types instead of Javascripts dynamic, this makes it a lot easier to develop software with. It's still very much Javascript though, and my comment was a bit of a gaff
