It’s not all or nothing it’s just America isn’t a trustworthy place to hold anything you don’t want accessed by a corrupt government. I wouldn’t use a Russian service, I wouldn’t use an American service.

I mean the real answer is if you want privacy it needs to be trustless.

yes but that’s kind of the point. I don’t want to deal with a company which is beholden to the law of gangsters. I might not hold it against them but also it is a huge competitive disadvantage for a privacy based product.

spacex is doge coin but even less stable

My real issue is as a dev of a web application, using Firefox makes things occasionally render differently. It’s only once in a blue moon but enough to make me just accept using Vivaldi to be closer to the defacto user experience. And then I can’t be bothered to switch between FF (I use Zen) and Vivaldi and split my bookmarks, extensions, logins etc. it just doesn’t make sense.

If you want Tor use Tor. And if you need Web3… that is a legit use of Brave

The amount of people I see use spotify and youtube with ads and just don’t feel or see anything wrong with this really disturbs me. People don’t realise the psychic damage they inflict upon themselves, they don’t see the issue.

Vivaldi have earned and deserve a lot of trust here I believe. All my chromium eggs sit in their basket.

What about vivaldi sucked for you?
