Same boat, used it since Win XP but they've been bleeding out badly since Eich left with no signs of recovery.

I do want to like Brave, as it is Firefox II in spirit, but the combo of web3 crap, Chromium and the fact that it still pings outbound (with it all 'off') puts me off entirely.

Maybe it's time for me to fork KHTML and do what needs to be done.

Note that KHTML is dead: https://github.com/KDE/khtml/tree/master

The writing was on the wall as KDE moved to first QtWebkit and then the Blink based QtWebEngine.
