Brave's close association with cryptocurrency and Web 3 is also concerning. Most fraud occurs at the endpoints, not in the middle. While the centralized banking system has mechanisms like chargebacks to address fraud, the crypto space lacks such safeguards. Cryptocurrency has limited real-life utility and is largely sustained by con artists looking to scam people. Once people recognize one scheme as a scam, new crypto concepts, like NFT games, are quickly invented to keep the deception going.

Anything other than Brave? I tried it for a couple of days and went back to Chrome. Brave is so bloated with random crap.

You have to go to settings and disable everything non core browser related. Including their ad blocker. Then add unlock origin.

That more or less makes it a good standard chromium browser.

I'm not sure I agree, I run Brave with the standard ad blocking (agressive on Youtube though) and it has been smooth sailing, no ads. What's wrong with Brave's ad blocker according to you?

Youtube detects the ad blocker and blocks watching videos.

Might have changed now though

Brave uses uBlock filters, you shouldn't see any difference between them, maybe your filters were outdated?

But will UBO v2 be updated after manifest 3 goes live?
