The IRS rules governing nonprofits still required the Mozilla Foundation to beg big to go big: the parent had to go find big grants from Soros, Ford, Knight, MacArthur, and give smaller grants to many. This put it in the lefties-only-no-righty-Irish-need-apply revolving-door personnel sector of NGOs and nonprofits (too many glowies there for me, too). Which meant I had a hostile MoFo over my head the minute I got CEO appointment from the MoCo board…
Of course I can’t comment on anything about my exit, for reasons that only the most loopy HN h8ers still can’t figure out.

As a reminder, Eich was turfed from Mozilla for joining an anti-LGBT hate campaign (and thus alienating a whole lot of developers, sponsors, and users); and his So Brave browser pushed NFTs and stole money via referral fraud.

Fascists lie.
Are you sure? You can’t just lie on the internet. Who would lie on the internet? Is it even possible to lie on the internet? I don’t think it is.
Ladies, I have a 12 inch penis and 34 million dollars. Call me.
I’ve got a 34mm penis and 12 dollars. Any takers? Ladies?
Not a lady, but I could use the twelve bucks.
Oh, is that where the name Brave came from?
Brave is a peter thiel project.
Fact.
can’t believe the homophobic crypto nut would also be a right wing loon
crypto, homophobia, fits in with conservatives they all believe in these types of scams. either they buy into crypto, or they are peddling it-themselves.
It’s always the ones you most expect
Look, fool me sixteen times, shame one you. Fool me twenty six times, shame on you. We won’t get fooled again.
Oh that queer hating fuck is still around?
Most of them are.
Not shocked the fake coin browser has a right-wing CEO.
The origin story of Brave is entirely right-wing. He was forced out of Mozilla because of his public stances on political topics. It’s no secret that after being forced out for his politics, he went on to create a new browser company.

What is a “real coin”? Like a nickel? The little pieces of cheap metal with slavers on it?
The whole point of fake coins is to trade them for real coins.

Oh, BTC.
Gross
This spineless mouth breather just realised there’s a buck to be made by glazing other alt-right mouth breathers. At least he can finally be himself now. Thankfully, his product is just google chrome repackaged and thereby sucks major ass.
just realised
“Just”? No, he’s always been open about this, and that’s why his appointment as Mozilla CEO was so controversial in 2014, and why the board revolted and he ended up resigning 11 days into his tenure.
The whole origin story of Brave is steeped in right wing politics.
I didn’t know that word.
Noun
glowie (plural glowies)
- (Internet slang, derogatory, far-right) A government agent or informant infiltrating an online political space, with the supposed intention of surveilling violent extremists or provoking entrapment.
Ohh, Thanks I did need a dictionary for the OP, but you still left out the racist 4chan verbiage around the etymology (“CIA N*s glow in the dark”). https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/glowie#English
deleted by creator
The originator of the term is the late Terry Davis, a paranoid schizophrenic and developer of TempleOS. He used to go on angry rants about “glow in the dark CIA niggers”, or glowies for short.

Brave has always seemed shady to me. I mean it has built in crypto spam.
Right wing asshole shows to the world again that they never improved and are even more of a right wing asshole.
This is why I never used Brave anything longer than a brief look. Fuck this dude, I’m glad Mozilla removed him.
brave is just chromium, i wonder when google wants to cut them off down the line.
Oh right - that’s why I keep not installing Brave. I knew it was something and then I forget.
What the fuck is it with the “Tech Friendly” companies going to shit?
That’s the thing. They always were shit, just with Trump’s War on Woke, they now feel like the money they’ve always spent on good will of the public, DEI programs, keeping a muzzle on the racist/misogynistic/bigoted person running the company isn’t really needed. Now all that “wasted” money can go where it belongs…into shareholder profits.
Wow, ketamine is a hell of a drug.
For a non-native speaker of english this reads like a core dump. I have zero idea what this dude is even talking about.

Oh, it’s almost as if brave has always sucked.
Is there a good mobile browser that…
- Supports adblock?
- Doesn’t have as many rendering issues as Firefox on mobile sites?
I know the latter isn’t Firefox’s fault, but it still impacts the end user.
