Rhys Williams and Nathaniel Phillips did incredibly well for Liverpool this season

Woke up this morning and checked the world ranking (according to Transfermarkt) of the Liverpool footballers who played the most this season.

No wonder JÃ¼rgen Klopp is satisfied. Liverpool is 3rd in the Premier League and has qualified for the UEFA Champions League with two central defenders, Rhys Williams and Nathaniel Phillips, who are respectively ranked 273rd and 282rd in world football. This is amazing.

Next season, with Virgil van Dijk partnering with Ibrahima KonatÃ© in central defense and with 1-2 other additions, the team will be really strong.

Use the default Android sharing mechanism with the Brave browser

(NB September 2021: This does not seem to work anymore… I’m investigating.)

I have been using the Brave browser on my phone for some time now and it works great.

When I find an interesting website or article, I often share it to social media and, for some reason, the Brave developers slightly changed the way sharing is done in the latest version of the browser. To restore the previous way of doing sharing i.e. using the default Android sharing mechanism, there is one setting to disable: Chrome Sharing Hub.

The idea is simply to go to brave://flags, look for Chrome Sharing Hub (which means that Brave probably is built on Chromium), disable the setting and relaunch Brave.

Enjoy.
