Note: usually takes a while until new Brave updates are delivered automatically

 

[Jonny Quest]

@silversurfer nice "Note", as I've found that to be the case. Manually updating after I see your post happens more quickly than through Brave's auto update.

 

[stonjean633]

It's been my habit to always do a manual browser update and that includes Brave before further surfing the web.

That's a good habit to follow and do, especially with something as as critical as our browsers security/updates.
As @oldschool would say, Word!
