Can someone please fork brave?
Which feature do you want that isn't already in better, Firefox-based browsers?
Not crashing my computer after using it for a few minutes would be nice.
What the hell kind of rickety rig are you running?
Do you happen to use Mac OS? I used a Macbook when I was working on my masters, and that's the only bad experience I've ever had with Firefox. It didn't seem to crash, but it ate memory like a black hole, and none of the suggestions people gave in forums ever worked for me, so I switched to Safari during that time.
Not Mac OS, but I am using a linux distro, and can confirm it's Firefox, as I've reinstalled everything from scratch and only Firefox seems to have this problem.
When visiting the govt. Website, it says you're using unsupported browser and some feature won't work but when I use brave, I dont get that message.
sane tab management and behavior on mobile versions along with proper syncing is apparently too huge of a hurdle to handle for the devs. these two are pretty much the only reason why i still use brave and not firefox
Lol seriously? I am using firefox from past 5, -8 years and never crashed once.
