Brave vs. Chrome: Which Browser is Better?

[tarekma7]

Speed

Unlike Chrome, Brave blocks ads and trackers by default.
This allows websites on Brave to load noticeably faster than Chrome. Below is a speed test between Brave, Chrome, and Firefox.


Brave tracks the time it saves you, and displays it when you open the browser.

Advantage: Brave

Privacy

Brave blocks ads by default (unlike Chrome, which requires a 3rd-party extension such as AdBlock).
Brave blocks 3rd-party tracking by default.
On Chrome, mega-advertisers like Google and Facebook use 3rd-party cookies to track your browsing on nearly every website.
By blocking 3rd-party cookies, Brave limits the amount of data Facebook, Google, and other ad networks can collect about your browsing habits.
Brave stores all your browsing data locally on your computer, which means you can delete it at any time.
Brave supports Tor browsing, making it the first all-purpose browser to do so.


Advantage: Brave

Security

Brave automatically encrypts your website connection when possible (on Chrome, this only occurs with an extension like HTTPS Everywhere).
Brave now supports all Chrome extensions, including popular password managers like LastPass and 1Password.
Advantage: Brave

I too haven't tried Brave yet. Does all the Chrome extensions work well on Brave? Any Brave users can share their experience of Brave and its extensions support?

Do you mean they show ads in the browser? It's ironic.. a browser with in-built ads protection itself serves ads.

Do I have to pay Brave to go ad-free?
No, Brave will always be free to use — you don’t need to pay to block ads and tracking.
We encourage you to support your favorite publishers with Brave Rewards, or get compensated for paying attention to Brave Ads, but these features are both completely voluntary. You can use one, the other, both, or neither.

What does it mean that a user can opt into receiving ads?
Brave blocks ads and trackers by default. We will soon release the ability for users to opt into receiving some ads. We will offer this option as another way — beyond Brave Payments — that users can support publishers.
When they do appear, there will be fewer but higher quality ads. Rest assured, that even if you opt into receiving these ads, trackers will still be blocked and your privacy will still be protected. We will provide more detail around this feature when it is ready.
