> Yes, you can get extensions for this in Chrom(e/ium) but having these as a native feature is really nice.

I've been using Brave for a while and I'm considering going back to FF, partly to get out of Chromium.

However, this is a point I don't get. What do I care if these features are native or plug-ins? My Brave plugins are synced, so whenever I install Brave and set it up I immediately. If the plugin is well done, there is no difference, and for people who don't care about that particular feature it could be less bloat to have it on a feature.

Specifically for the Reader mode, the Chromium Addon I use comes from the Firefox code for the same functionality, so it's just as good. Kudos to FF, OSS is awesome.



Amongst other issues, extensions have a habit of turning into malware.
