It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

brave literally has a scam cryptocurrency wtf. if you hate firefox that much use its forks like Mullvad Browser (you dont have to use vpn).
loser soyfacing batchesting clowns
Same energy as aging fundies going to Chick-Fil-A specifically out of spite against gay people.
Even better is the money-man early backer of Brave was Peter Theil. Peter Theil is the reactionary alt-right billionaire who founded the CIA In-Q-Tel backed Palantir, a company infamous for selling big-brother-as-a-service to the US nat-sec apparatus. I don't trust anything he has his fingers in, especially if it is claiming to be selling you privacy while browsing the Internet. It's just like how Elon Musk, another billionaire who like Theil was raised apartheid South Africa, claims to be promoting freedom and privacy by buying Twiter.
If you care about privacy and an open web, stick with Mozilla Firefox and avoid honeypots like Brave.
Programming.dev chuds in the Lemmy federation want to "melt snowflakes" a lot more than they actually care about privacy and they're fine with walled gardens on the internet if they think they will have the keys to them.
firefox is fine, they just hate that mozilla fired a homophobe once
