It's been my default browser on MacOS for about a month. I signed up for BAT payments about a week ago.
For the most part, it's just another browser.
Pros:
+ I can disable Javascript per-site and reload the page in two clicks. I think that's possible with FFox or Chrome extensions, but it's built in to Brave.
+ UI looks cleaner.
Cons:
- A few videos have refused to play. (Can't characterize that yet.)
- Reopening a closed tab only opens the last page on that tab, not the page history. I.e., the back button doesn't work.
- I don't know when, which or how publishers will get paid in BAT.
- I don't know how hard or expensive it will be to buy more BAT when my free ones are gone. Apparently I will have to open an account at a cryptocurrency exchange? Yuck!
