A device that surreptitiously gathers information on a target is called a bug, not a feature.

"Feature"

I've used this for years and have never interacted with any crypto feature
Not interacted doesnt mean it's non-existant.
It exists and therefore it's bad enough. -

Brave is the least bad chromium browser
It's pretty sleazy. Ungoogled Chromium or Vivaldi are probably less sleazy, if at all.
Vivaldi is not open source, so for me it doesn't count as a valid option.

Unfortunately that would involve using the Brave browser, which is an antifeature in itself.

I‘m not even pro Brave but all that ad stuff is opt-in so it doesn‘t matter as long as you don‘t want to see ads. The arguments in this thread are starting to just loop in circles. Essentially using Brave is fine if you stick to the default. There‘s no sleazy stuff if you don‘t enable it and the CEO also doesn‘t make a dime from you if that‘s something you‘re concerned about. You could of course use a different chromium browser if you want but it‘s virtually the same thing.

Actually it does! When youre installing, just delete the windows boot partition and your done!
Heck, wipe the entire disk!
(based on a real life experience)
(windows just kept standing no matter what partition i deleted so i wiped the disk clean)

Daves garage actually had a good video on the shared memory architecture recently that gives some insights on why apple designed this way they did. Don’t dismiss “different” as “trash.” You sound like an idiot when you do and it makes it difficult for adults to take you seriously. PC and Mac are designed with different goals in mind, so they tend to make different choices in their engineering, and you aren’t going to like every decision either side makes.
Shared memory is different to unified memory, AMD's got an implementation of the later with their "Ryzen AI MAX+" (ugh) systems, does quite well in benchmarks.
It also doesn't hurt that Apple puts the RAM on the SoC and gives it a truckload of bandwidth. DDR5 is about 70GB/s, meanwhile the M4 Max is around 540GB/s.

They haven't blocked the windows feature, they're using DRM to interfere with it. Microsoft could easily change how the DRM works any time they want, rendering all these hacks useless.

He invented JavaScript, so definitely don't use that either. For real. JavaScript sucks.
JS is difficult to avoid. Brave is easy to avoid, just use another browser.

Brave's CEO is a homophobic Trump supporter. No thanks.
He could be next husband of Ivanka Trump - I don't care
If he provide good service for me - browser which fits my needs. I would even send him money every day

I don't, my OS doesn't come with any nonsense.
Me neither, I just watch the shit show from the bleachers.

What's amazing is they proved themselves wrong in their own post, thinking they proved themselves right. It's actually impressive.
Tbh kinda explains why they use Brave

That's the logic of as long as it benefits ME I don't care and I support them no matter what they do. This same logic has been applied to all the shitty things done in history like slavery, war and so forth, and the reason the world is the way it is.

Well, not really, a bug is unintentional. Even calling it a design flaw is a stretch, it's a feature that isn't for your benefit. -
That would be totally true if every software was distributed as a flatpak and every distro had flatpak enabled in the package manager out of the box. That's just not reality.
I said “usually”, and I’m talking about mainstream distros.
Also the original comment says “the whole OS is not ready for the general public”, which is also vague. I don’t expect the “general public” to install Gentoo and suffer from this issue.
