What's Brave got to do with this? The article (that you didn't read) goes into detail about how Anthropic places these files in the directory for any Chromium-based browser.

    While brave itself is only a minor character in this story, it is Chromium based. I was merely pointing it out. You'd be surprised how many push the brave browser on Lemmy.

    What is it with Lemmy users posting semi-unrelated comments just to make a point?

    You can't post anything in the Android or GooglePixel communities without 4 "ditch Google, use Graphene" comments.

    It really doesn't make for an engaging community that one wants to partake in.

    I'm pretty sure I do not represent the com as an individual.

    No but you're doing a good job fuelling the stereotype 😃

    Maybe just maybe forums are for discourse? Or maybe you're just as at fault for trying to gatekeep, bringing the "immediately on topic" comment ratio down? Be the change you want to see in world and let it go. It's easy, start by not responding now.
