yeah the only point it has thats actually interesting is crypto, though for anyone who doesnt care about it will probably not like the browser (seriously what does it have that others dont?)

Absolutely not. It's the least shitty Chromium based browser by far. https://www.privacyguides.org/en/desktop-browsers/#brave

i kind of doubt brave is less shitty than degoogled chromium. also, the whole crypto thing already makes it shittier than most others.

I see where you are coming from but degoogled chromium is ridden of the "bad" stuff that Chrome adds, it does nothing to actively fix what is unhardened in both Chrome and Chromium.

It's also the more relevant criticism, the entanglement of Brave with crypto, but within the chromium ecosystem, it IS the best you can get.

I use ~~arch~~ firefox btw.
