Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place 🤦‍♂️

Just as a curiosity:

Today I decided to go to the Brave website to take a look and I noticed that the page (at least in Brazilian Portuguese) had been updated and looked much prettier :D

There is a panel comparing a sports site in some browsers with brave.


I'm in doubt between migrating to Opera or Brave.

Definitely, Brave. Way more private than Opera, isn't owned by shady Chinese company, employs author of EasyList ad blocking filters, has more advanced ad blocker built-in. The only downside of Brave is all crypto junk which can, fortunately, be disabled.

I was using Brave until yesterday and I have completely switched to Firefox because I fixed issues I had with it.

@lokamoka820 @Marko :) @SeriousHoax

Thank you friends!

I'll probably go for Brave, maybe I just need to learn what flags are recommended to disable to use Brave.

I think the only reason I would use Opera was because of the sidebar and the convenience of accessing the paid chatGPT that I have in a faster and more productive way.
I'll add my vote too. (y)

I use only these flags:

If what you are looking for in a browser is productivity, give a look at Vivaldi, it is developed by the same team who developed Opera, and it has sidebar like Opera and more other features.
