None of those seem like unique advantages. In fact, the only advantage there seems to be "Ad block is built in", which is still a dubious advantage at best.

To you, perhaps.

You could install Brave, or you could install adblock for the browser you're already using. It doesn't seem like much of an advantage for Brave to ship with adblock built-in, given that everybody already uses a web browser.

So it might seem to you.

Do you come on HN just to troll? Why even bother hitting the reply button if you don't have an actual reply to offer?

If you enjoy HN, consider that if comments like yours were the norm, nobody would use this website and it would die.

Why, do you?

Perhaps quibbling over an upvoted comment is a pattern that tires me.

You karma cumulative karma is around 120 if I read it correctly. Mine is 7356. I think I know how to turn a popular idiom.

A second spent thinking about HN karma is one too many.

>Perhaps quibbling over an upvoted comment is a pattern that tires me.

You could just simply not reply if you think I'm not engaging in good faith, as opposed to actively sabotaging the forum with pointless trolling. What's the point?

Because you are an interesting target.
