    I recently started using Brave Browser as I noticed YouTube ads were starting to seep through randomly. Seems alright no far.

      Chromium fork. Chromium code, Google defining compatibility standards. Firefox (or it’s forks) is the only real alternative.

        Chrome is already spyware on its own. That’s basically the reason Chrome exists.

          Two spies, one browser. Very efficient.

      Not sure why you are being downvoted just for not realizing about Brave using Chromium. That seems a bit harsh.

      Here’s a list of non-Chromium web browsers from August for you or anyone else who might find it helpful.

        Brave was astro-turfed by crypto-scammers for way too long to give people suggesting it now the benefit of the doubt.
