Mozilla is in bed with Google. I use brave because: * it has reasonable way of funding, crypto may suck, but it is believable they will not sell my data * anonymous bookmark sync with multiple profiles. With Chrome and Firefox I have to sign up for each sync. * Chrome based debug tools * It is usable without any plugins. In some environments I do not want to install some questionable plugins, that may change ownership anytime! (It is already named "Ublock Origin", ownership already changed ) * Proprietary Video Codecs support out of the box on Linux. Some distros do not have it, and I do not want to enable community repos. |

You can rest assured that Brave absolutely will and does sell your data.
> anonymous bookmark sync with multiple profiles. With Chrome and Firefox I have to sign up for each sync.
Nothing at all anonymous about it, firstly. Secondly, you can import/export bookmarks from Firefox and Chrome and do an actual 'anonymous' sync that way.
> Chrome based debug tools
Like.... chrome has?

No it's not. It's completely unusable if you actually don't want ads.

The only reason prop codec implementations are not supported in some (not most) repos is because of licensing/OSS policy... which would equally apply to Brave within those same repos.
