I've been using this Brave browser for a couple of weeks now.
I reset my old Win7 era computer (smashed when all those shelves fell off the wall) that I mainly use for internet forums, background music, shopping and then only installed Brave, EAC for ripping and copying CDs, Irfanview for light photo manipulation, an audio codec specific to my enhanced "audiophile" sound card.
Nothing more!
With Win Update, I'm running a bare Win10 (too old for Win11- lol) with almost no applications installed. So, best of most worlds.
Old thing runs like dream, restarts so fast.
I have to admit, this Brave browser is faster than Chrome and has some built in ad blocking functions.
Ad blocking with Chrome, I had to add extensions. Not so with Brave. So far.
I like it!
It was recommended to me a number of times, even from a couple of guys here. Thanks!
The only other application I might/will add is JRiver Media Center, which is an awesome way to keep over half a million media files networked, catalogued and on hand, couple of clicks away.
Pricey, but at this stage of my collecting, I have the lifetime license for three machines.
Thanks to you too few Brave banner wavers!!
Lowered my Chrome flag, already.
Doing breakfast for dinner tonight.
Sausage links, bacon and potatoes. The little ones with the purple, golds and reds.
Will be prepared on the blackstone.
Howdy ancjr, BD, Greg and V8. Back home! I left at 2:30 today. Half hour early but considering I worked about an hour and a half before I left for work, I didn't see a problem with it.
