Why the fuck are you posting YouTube comments?
Why the fuck are you using Brave?

Stop using the YouTube app/website, get an alt frontend like FreeTube, Grayjay, Revanced, etc. Not only do they remove ads and make it impossible for Google to track you, they have better UX than the official apps.

What’s wrong with Brave?/gen I keep seeing positive comments about it, so there must be something I don’t know.

Here's a pretty in-depth explanation. https://www.spacebar.news/stop-using-brave-browser/ The article is from 2023, so I'm not sure if they've improved since then.
