It is not particularly surprising considering that the founder of Brave was fired as Mozilla's CEO and replaced by the current one specifically because of politics.

> because of politics.

Even more specifically because of his anti-LGBT politics.

After a bit of reading, it sounds like he has some very nasty personal views. At least he respected the Mozilla community enough to step down when they came to light.

His views do not impart themselves onto Brave of course, but I will stay with Firefox.

Brendan Eich wasn't replaced by the current CEO though. Nor was he fired. Nor was it just because of [his] politics.

Nor does that article say what you think it does.

But whatever, think what you like.
