Brendan talks about this a bit more here: https://x.com/BrendanEich/status/2006412918783619455
I work at Brave, VP of IT. I worked at Mozilla for 5 years. So have some experience with browsers.
I see our insanely high infrastructure bill each month, most of the cost comes down to CDN/distribution of updates, block lists, safe browsing etc. But we also have a bunch of other costs for staff to maintain said infrastructure and security.
If you get to scale, what is the plan here? Because $1M won't get you a very long runway and the moment browsers stop doing what they should be doing well, they die. Wishing you the best of luck.
