Dude, this is a Firefox. Why tell us not use something what...95% of people here are not using in the first place?

EDIT: The crypto stuff is opt-in. You don’t have to use Brave Shields (in browser ad blocker). It can be turned off. Now you can use uBlock Origin or another ad blocker.

About the CEO, I can’t see nothing about his beliefs reflecting in his work. Looks like he kept them separated. I’m not for said beliefs.

EDIT 2: Also Brendan Eich is a co-founder of Mozilla. So if you're not going to use Brave because of him. How can you use Firefox?

Just ignore everything I said here. I misinterpreted stuff. My bad.

~~Claiming it’s Firefox is a bit misleading. Claiming its suggesting it’s equivalent to saying don’t use Firefox is outright deceptive and/or downright ignorant.~~

~~I'm sorry but what?~~

this is a Firefox

It's obvious that op meant that we are on r/Firefox, therefore there's no need to shill against brave.

Given what I had said about it, the interpretation made sense. I already apologized. There's no need to correct me after the author already did. It adds nothing but trying to be condescending.
