Aside from having low RAM usage, being fast, focusing on privacy (built-in ad and tracker blocker), giving free tokens that you can use to donate to websites (by enabling ad notifications, completely unrelated to your personal information), being able to run all the extensions chrome can run, having a built-in TOR, being created by an anti-LGBTP and anti-lockdown/masks goat, etc., etc., I just found out about another cool feature: it has a built-in torrent client. Nice.

How is it a chrome skin? I do t understand the advanced computer stuff so how are they similar? I used chrome before I knew better and I use brave now. Brave blocks every single ad, even on videos, and not a single website has detected the adblocker either…
Its built on Chromium, which is an open source project developed by Google and designed with advertisers in mind. As such, compared to other browser engines, all chrome skins like brave, opera, vivaldi, etc are built from the ground up to fingerprint users.

Brave is any other browser with an adblockedr installed. Its geared toward people who don't know how to install an ad blocking extension. It is not any more effective than ublock with chrome. Brave still phones home to google when it is launched, it still leaks your fingerprint in unblockable ways, and it still has the various advertising features that are baked into its Chromium core.
You've probably seen some leftie talking shit about brave because its creator is based. So for unkiked people, that IS a reason to use brave
Easy there, fella. NO web browser is safe, secure, or has any kind of privacy protection. I use Brave because it gives the appearance of being less intrusive, but I have no illusions that my every move isn't being recorded and analyzed -- not by the creators of the browser, but by everyone else in the chain. Brave just limits one's exposure, but doesn't really provide real security or privacy.
With that, the Privacy and Security can be tuned to BlackOps, and from the Tor Project, their browser config is highly tuned. chrome://flags pales in comparison to about:config
If youre a power user that likes casual onion surfing, Brave away, you know where youre goin. For real privacy, of course, your only option is the original Tor Browser.

Brave adblocker blocks everything.
Are you suggesting I’m lying?

Ublock origin is better than brave built in adblocker. It is also more configurable, safer, blocks more ads, etc.
Umatrix or Noscript function without whitelists and block elements you do not know exist.

Is it operationally the same as the Firefox fork directly from TorProject? Accessing both regular and onion sites with the same kind of security?
