Ask HN: Why should I use Brave vs. Firefox?

I'm non-technical but very concern about privacy. I use Firefox, DuckDuckGo, Private Internet Access VPN, Signal and Tails. I have 2 computers; one for searching, another for business.

I can follow how-tos but beyond that, I'm shooting in the dark and listening to "experts" to help me avoid the privacy invasive networks.

Please shed some light on Brave vs Firefox?

Are you asking what is more private than the other? As a FF user, I can recommend it. More than the browser itself, see if you get behind the idea of the organization. There are many FF devs on this forum and I can usually trust mozilla to do the right thing.

Brave, I have never used and I keep away from all this coin and token stuff.

Brave feels like Chrome, but I feel it's faster and removes Google from tracking the actual browser. I didn't need to add uBlock because the out of the box ad blocker is good already. You can install Chrome extensions by going to the Chrome web store and click on the 'Add to brave' button.

I now use Brave for my personal browsing. Earning crypto while browsing is cool.

I use Chrome for work because I think their web tools are the best.

Use both.

I encourage you to not even consider Brave. Or any other chromium based browser.

We lost another player in the web browser game with the death of Edge. To make it worse, Google got another token since Edge is now based on chromium.

We're only left with 3 (mainstream) engines and only one of them actively supports the open web. Stay with firefox.
