Didn’t know where to post this, so hopefully this is the right spot. Please boycott Brave. I’ve recently learned that not only is their CEO bad, but their fanbase is toxic, too. I will no longer be using Brave for that reason.

        JS is by far the worst language I have ever used besides PHP

        I’d argue that while PHP may be worse on a technical level, JS is a worse overall ecosystem because if you develop for the web, you’re forced to use it.

      You realise the guy created JavaScript eh?

      You’ll find that it’s one of the most hated programming languages around here. People say (with good reason) that its implementation is terrible compared to other programming languages, and its over-adoption (being used when it’s unnecessary) is commonly accused of being a major factor of the badly performing and resource hungry websites of the modern internet. It also enables the vast majority of invasive tracking tactics.

      As another user also mentioned, it’s a logical fallacy to directly compare a product that has clear alternatives, like brave, and a product that everyone is practically forced to use, like JavaScript, when talking about disliking the creator of those things.

      Finally, as far as I know, Brendan Eich is no longer involved with the development of the JavaScript language standards, but he’s currently the CEO of Brave.

      Using JavaScript doesn’t put money in his pocket, using Brave does.

          permanent

          You proved the point yourself. Not using javascript isn’t gonna change a thing.

          Also no one really thinks about that guy when they hear javascript lmao

              You haven’t refuted anything since my point was in the first sentence I wrote, not the second one.

                  You’re acting quite emotional calling Brendan Eich a piece of shit human being without ever having read his arguments or listened to him speak.

                  His homophobia is very well documented and yes, with direct quotes of what he said. Do those not count as hearing his arguments?

                  Plenty of horrible people, from Trump to Hitler, had moments of making valid points in some areas, but none of those moments should detract from the fact that they are horrible people with horrible beliefs and actions.

                  I believe you’re apart of the “woke” mob, that piles on people before reading up on them and making your own judgement. Ie. You seem to be a victim of cancel culture.

                  Lol, mob? Not wanting to use a browser owned by homophobic counts as a mob? I’ve also never gotten the outrage with this thing called “cancel culture” with things like these. Are people not allowed to dislike known homophobic covid deniers?
