All of the current browsers have major drawbacks. Brave has many features that other browsers don't offer. They've made what is quickly becoming the industry standard adblocker, being adopted by Firefox, Waterfox, Comet, and even Ladybird browser. No extensions required.
Most browsers don't allow you to easily toggle on and off certain privacy features on a per-site basis. That's why I use it primarily.
Origin is free on Linux.
Until Servo and Ladybird are ready, this strikes the best balance for privacy and usabllity, in my opinion
I'm curious how their adblocker blocks more than 100% of all ads, cuz that's what they'd need to beat ublock (which existed before brave did).
Such as? Crypto nonsense?
The adblocker? OK I guess, except they are still just a middle man for ads (hence the crypto nonsense).
I dont see the value.
