/r/privacy on reddit won't allow this post because:

While we (vastly) prefer the Tor Browser over the Brave one, you'll need a better source than the one you found. Can you find something from a more widely recognized NetSec expert? Something along the lines of Bruce Schneier's blog or something at that level of credibility?

Does anyone else wish to replicate this to confirm?

I agree, a more polished look would definitely help. I can't browse reddit's new site, not sure how people navigate that mess. Old reddit is where it's at.

I need to put more into the dev site before pushing in major updates to this instance. There are a lot of little features that people want that would make the site better it's just a matter of figuring it out myself or trying to find trustworthy people who are more capable and able to assist.

A more "old reddit" look with RES features like post / image preview from the index of forums (though, JS required) would be a huge upgrade.

Actually, e-mail verification is fine for me, as long as it will let me use aliases, like those Riseup has. But yes, I do hate CRAPTCHAs, especially the Goolag one. Sure, I can use Buster (https://github.com/dessant/buster, clear net only), but it doesn't really help when you're continuously using a service that requires it because you're still supporting the cancer.

He'll still get the black vote by a wide margin, so it's hard to give a shit. Biden could put on blackface and reenact Song of the South on the White House front lawn and still lock that demographic. Nothing will make them not vote Democrat.

email verify is out too, just let users register with username and password, and they have to complete non js 8 or more character image captcha. how hard is it to store usernames and passwords in db, prune old/unused accounts that haven't logged in for a while. no log vpn.

I mean trust in the sense that it won't fuck you over in the near future. I've also continued using FF 3.6 and later FF 38 for years without experiencing any trouble. The only trouble I ever experienced with FF was related to upgrading it. And this happens basically with every other update.

It's hard to trust software that updates every two weeks, so even if you wanted to poke at the source code to make sure nothing nasty slipped in, nobody would even have the resources to do so.
