While I would like to try Brave at some point, I can’t really support any browser based on Chromium. Google’s control over the browser market is far too strong as it is, and I would prefer not to support that by using a browser made with their web technologies. Additionally, Brave has a handful of other issues that would prevent me from choosing it, like their cryptocurrency integration and advertising model.
