Brave is a web browser that uses components from Chrome to build a more security-conscious browser which also has an alternate advertising mechanism with revenue sharing.

Like Chrome, it's missing fundamental things.

• 2019-08-02 - 0.67.123 Chromium: 76.0.3809.87 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Windows 10

• 2018-03-27 - 1.0.43, Chromium 65.0.3325.109 on Android 7.0.0; X20 Build/NRD90M

  • I've been using for a few weeks. It's nice and fast and works well enough. I like that I can actually organize bookmarks, unlike Chrome.

• 2018-03-27 - Some weeks ago I switched from Firefox.

  • I would later abandon this experiment.

• 2016-10-27 - 0.12.6 on Windows 10 64bit

2016-10-27 - 0.12.6 ∞

Brave               0.12.6
Electron            1.4.18
libchromiumcontent  53.0.2785.143
V8                  5.3.332.47
Node.js             6.50

• Clean, simple and fast like Chrome. Obviously a knockoff that I hope they significantly diverge from to turn this into a real browser.
• I like orange. I wish it had a dark theme.
• I see no theming functionality.
• I see no extensions/addons functionality.
• I see a reference to using a version of flash, but no plugins functionality.
• Accesskeys with alt or alt-shift do not work.

• Menu

  • I can tap alt to view it.
  • I cannot press alt+key to go to a particular entry, e.g. alt-h for help.
  • Cannot be made to be permanent. If accesskeyed even worked, then the menu constantly appearing and disappearing, bouncing everything around, would be fucking godawfully annoying.

• About > Helpd

  • Cannot copy the content of the help screen. Ugh.
  • Cannot keep this window up and interact with the browser. Fuck man, I have to manually type things into a text file..
• Like Chrome, cannot control-shift-pageup/pagedown to move a browser around. Even with the mouse it's annoying.
• Hovering over another tab gives a greyed out version of it. While cute, this greyness is fucking annoying.
• Like Chrome, cannot assign a keyword to a bookmark, forcing me to go and look for bookmarks. Fuck that.

• Bookmarks Manager - control-shift-o

  • control-f doesn't go to the 'search bookmarks' field. I wonder what the difference is between these two searches.
• right click > inspect element does not let me copy the text. What the fuck is the point of it, then?

• When editing a blog entry

  • Pressing pagedown jumps the whole page before settling into a new position for the text editing field.
  • Upon control-f to find, the mouse focus is removed from the text area.

• Uninstalling didn't even prompt. I was hoping it would prompt me to delete user data.
