Well, I think this is because, objectively, Brave is the best browser for daily driving for most people, and the only arguments against it are like this:
“Well, it’s based on chromium, and chromium is Google, and Google is bad, so chromium is bad.”
“Well, I think that crypto is bad; I don’t like crypto! So Brave is bad, it has crypto stuff!”
“Amm, I have no technical, objective criticism, so I will mention that Brave’s CEO is homophobic, like it has to do anything with a browser itself.”
Some people are just tired of hearing these same points over and over again, and I understand them.
