It’s OK. The main problem I have with it is You Tube vids, as well as any vids I save off my car’s dash cams are zoomed in.
I’ve been using Brave for over a year and no problems.
I use both Brave and duckduckgo.
Brave is *way* better than firefox, edge or IE.
I really like duckduckgo a lot but am not sure it provides the same search coverage that Goolag does.
Been using Brave for over a year...only current problem I have with it is playing Amazon Prime music streams. It’s Ad blocking ability is great if fully implemented “Shields Up Mode”...I wouldn’t add a bunch of extension to it as that opens you up to privacy issues again.
If you want to get into cryptocurrencies (and make a donation to FR by browsing to FR) use the Brave “Rewards” feature and turn on payments for FR.
Full disclosure...I use Brave as a “secondary browser” to my Mac Safari browser and put the sketchy/ad laden sites I need to go to in it (FaceBook, Yahoo, etc.). Safari is still more compatible with sites than Brave, but Brave is coming along fast.
Been using Brave since it first came out, and love it.
Brave has made a couple improvements which made it better (managing favorites, for instance).
I do use Geek Squad when I have computer problems (none related to Brave) and the agents have been (surprisingly to me) unfamiliar with Brave.
One agent though when remotely on my computer for a few minutes loved Brave and said he was going to start using it.
I switched the machine I am on to Brave a few days ago.
Some things I don’t like:
Double posts on FR skyrocketed.
There doesn’t seem to be a way to select an image from a webpage and send it via email and there is no send a link via email function.
PITA to have to save an image and then send it.

Been using Brave since it first came out. I’ve heard there might be issues with importing bookmarks, so I haven’t. Only thing I wonder about is a lot of the video things on Fox don’t play. Not sure why except that they are some other format other than U tub.....
That’s my only complaint. I’m used to doing copy of an Earl... and then pasting into email, so I don’t miss whatever button someone might be.

Gonna take a few day on getting used too it, like what I see , have to figure out how to set my home-page....
I have been using it intermittently for a year or so. It is OK, and I’d probably like it if it did a few things differently. But I have a particular way that I use the internet, and it just does not work the way I like. If I had started out with it, I probably wouldn’t mind, but a twenty year habit is hard to break.
I use Brave and am happy with it...less pop ups on the news sites.
I use brave exclusively for phone and computer at work and home for my own uses.
No issues, the ad blocking is great, some websites cry because they want that adblock removed, I just skip the page then and don’t go back.
Everything that I can block is blocked, tracking, java, etc. with brave.
I love it.
Brave is basically Google Chrome in a slightly different set of clothes. So if you switched to Brave to escape Google, you really didn’t get very far.
It certainly isn’t as annoying as Firefox has become.
I tried installing brave 2 or 3 times, never worked at all, locked up my machine every time I tried to turn it on the first time.
Finally gave up. Last time I tried I completely uninstalled and deleted the download, started over from scratch, still wouldn’t work but I had about 8 instances of Brave showing up in Task Manager. Bogged the machine down to where I thought I was going to have to reboot.
First couple of tries, I figured I just got a corrupted download, which is why I completely removed everything and started over with new download.
I use Brave. My experience is mostly positive. Sometime I have to fall back to Firefox because some website is not working, but these incidents are few and far between.
I use brave, cyberghost vpn and noticed that when running a computer cleaning program that it may be piggybacking or maybe because the computer might be logged into google/have google and MS it is still picking up in google some information.
I would suggest you get a new computer, new email address, not install google chrome or use the this computer for anything except surfing - if you bank, shop or cross check that email address on a system that has everything else like chrome you might still get traced even on a vpn. Just a precaution and theory.
I tried Brave and SlimJet side by side. I like SlimJet better.
