Nice tutorial. It takes some work, but all that crypto stuff can be disabled in Brave and then it works really well blocking ads and trackers...

Rather than disabling all the crypto, why not use a browser that isn't infected with it in the first place?

Firefox also requires setup (installing uBlock for starters). I find that setting up Brave is not any more work, and then it is indeed a pretty good browser.

But that's the whole point of Brave. If you're not interested in crypto, pick a browser that's just a browser. There are better choices: Safari, GNOME Web, Falkon, Firefox.

Safari: not an option outside of Macs. Gnome Web: barely usable. Falkon: insecure due to no/low maintenance (think the last release is years ago). Firefox: requires setup too.

That's your take. I use Brave for it's protocol support and native ad blocking. Where are you getting this "point of Brave" from?

What if one just wants a more usable ungoogled-chromium?
