I only use brave at work because it somehow bypasses the firewall there and I can install and use it. I run it to watch videos about cooking or traveling and reading news when I have nothing to do at my job.

At home I usually run tor browser (tbb) and firefox with addons to block ads and tracking.

I’m not sure I should turn to brave as default browser. How do you see it?

what’s your experience with brave like?

    Brave do shady stuff to get money like change your URL to include a referral code for them, that’s not ethical as the “AI training models” they do with their search engine, I don’t trust them. All what you get with Brave you can do the same with Firefox. If you want to browse Tor on Firefox I recommend you using Firefox containers + https://github.com/bekh6ex/firefox-container-proxy and one container names Tor and proxy it to your Tor socket (should be localhost:9050) and done.
