Wow, I haven't used Chromium things in a long time, being more of a Firefox user by default. Sorta like how I am an Emacs user by default. Or an XFCE user by default. etc., get off my lawn. Thus when I set up a new Windows 10 machine from parts last night and then tried to set my home page / new tab page to just be duckduckgo and could not immediately see how to do it, I installed Brave since I had heard about that, and guess what - it is based on Chromium, I guess, so it has the exact same utterly insanely obviously brokenly over complicated hellacious wrong pure evil UI UX about this kind of stuff too! Thus I ran crying home to momma Firefox. Which - don't get me wrong - is horribly broken in all sorts of UI UX ways, too, but not nearly as much, which is horrible irony since Firefox used to be the thing I was disgusted by in terms of usability. In the computer world the Emperors haven't had any clothes for way too long. All of them. If you ask me.
