Brave is also a shifty shady browser that has problems with inserting affiliate links without telling you and selling off user data. They're really not better or remotely trustworthy TBH, you might as well use the actual TOR browser built on Firefox if you need that capability.

Yeah, I don't understand how Brave became acceptable all of the sudden.

Did they do some big marketing campaign in the US or something?

They definitely did some marketing, because it came out of nowhere. When I first installed it, it was all over the internet, from YouTube to webpages. A similar thing you can notice with the Arc Browser. I couldn't find any exceptional features on the Arc Browser but the hype is encouraging people to try it.

Yup, work in a call center and it was a huge ramp up all of a sudden with elderly clients on brave and asking why our site stopped working...

Also the android app is crap and keeps crashing, and their ad blocker is mich inferior to the glory of ublock origin
