- Brave is an advertising company, that blocks everyone, but them. Forcing over people and companies into their system.
- They’re heavily in the blockchain ecosystem, with their own worthless crypto.
- They take from open source projects (uBlock, Chromium, etc), but threaten legal action when someone forks them.
- They install bloat/spyware on your Windows system (later claimed it was a mistake).
- Brave, and its CEO is right-wing, lobbying against things like same-sex marriage.
I could go on.
Having it open source, does not make it good. I think I’d prioritise making it fun, try to.make a profit, and then open sourcing it. I don’t think having it open source will help you sell copies… you might sell less. Make your money first, have a feasible business strategy, so you don’t go bust. Then try to keep the game alive vis open sourcing it.
