Comment on This fuckass ad keeps popping up while I'm trying to study Norwegian
Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml 4 days agoHow recent is this history. Because I remember many years back now something like an AMA or some other post by the CEO of Brave, promoting it ahead of it being released I think and getting a pretty frosty reception on Reddit once people asked a bit more about how it was supposed to work. As time went on the reception seemed only to get worse as rumours spread of crypto scams and dodginess and even just on a basic level, questions of “why would we use this when we could just use Firefox with an ad blocker?”
I get the impression though that Reddit has been changing.
