Praising Brave is an unpopular opinion on HN. Yet many of us myself included (silently) use and enjoy Brave.

I too lost interest in Firefox a long time ago, about the time they evicted Brendan Eich revealing internal politics.

One of the things I like about Brave (it's been my daily driver for years now) is that it lets me give the gift of The Internet I Experience to non-technical folks like my mom.

Most people are just... inundated with ads. Try using a stock Chrome with no ad blockers for just a day. It's absolutely miserable. But every time you add another "setup" step you add potential breakage.

Now, I can just give someone Brave and they can have the same experience most of us do on HN!
