> When navigating to a new site, never send a referer header.
JWZ wouldn't know you are visiting from HN if you use Brave.
Or Safari, apparently.
What's the reason behind JWZ doing that anyways?
Because sometimes he behaves like what's in the image.
Strange to refer to brogrammers and to do this. Pot, kettle, black.
Weird. Just tested this, Brave on PC redirected to the image but not on Brave mobile
Also, if you're using a Hacker News app, it won't send a Referer header when opening an article unless the app authors went out of their way to implement that. I would be surprised if any did.
Because you won't be able to actually view anything on the website.
