> Lobsters has blocked the Brave browser since a scam in 2019. We still block it because they lie about following standards to they scrape and sell copies of websites. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but they have previously targeted Lobsters by name and have a years-long pattern of bad behavior.

Ok.

I never trusted Brave. This validates my skepticism.

As the message says, this is not new.

When you want to open this website using Brave anyway, you have to change your User Agent. You can do that by opening "Network conditions" in the three-dotted menu in developer tools, and setting a different User Agent value.

I see. And I thought Brave was quite trustworthy, maybe not so much now. Firefox not working well for me: It is resource hog. Guess I'll need to keep looking.

I’m currently using Onion (https://onionbrowser.com/ - from the people who make Kagi search) and it’s been quite good. Not perfect, but it’s getting there. I recommend giving it a try.

Anecdata to the contrary: on my Android devices I've switched from Brave to Firefox maybe a year ago (exactly because of the Lobste.rs story) and I found out performance to be completely acceptable for my needs.

And both solve youtube ads, which is how high I set the bar.

Apparently due to this:
