Totally agree. Why make someone richer who you ethically don’t align to. It just makes their agenda easier.
Right, because it was totally his views in general, not just lack of API access…
Edit: Sorry guys, you’re right, the surge of Lemmy users that correspond to the hour of API access loss was DEFINITELY just coincidental.
Personally I’m here because of the way he went about trying to bully people who demonstrated against the API change.
I don’t really care about the API change myself because I didn’t even indirectly use it.
So yeah, it’s exactly not wanting to put money on the hands of such a person.
Don’t really know Brave, don’t really know its CEO, am a little iffy on the whole screwing of people’s livelihoods due to their personal political leanings but can see how people would not want to put money in the hands of a guy who wants to make a subset of people miserable (by forbidding them to marry those they love) for no good reason (no mature and mentally healthy person goes around judging other people’s love on the gender of whom they love).
Whilst I think that even haters should be able to survive (even they have basic human rights) it’s fair enough if their chances at prosperity beyond mere survival are negativelly affected by them being haters: after all, making life shit for others is fine with them, so as I see it, live by the sword die by the sword.
