I moved to brave a while ago. Works great both in desktop and mobile, and you still get chromium under the hood. The metrics it shows about the amount of ads and trackers blocked is astonishing...

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is Brave 100% open source? I don't trust them at all because I feel that the underlying business model is shady (replacing website ads with their own ads).

> Is Brave 100% open source? They have the project on github so I guess the answer is yes... https://github.com/brave/brave-browser The business model is also quite smart, since the users get paid BAT tokens for viewing ads.
