  • Brave sells Origin to strip added features—a $60 one-time fee (free on Linux).
  • Origin removes email aliases, Leo AI, VPN, Wallet, Speedreader, and more via a toggleable panel or standalone client.
  • You can buy Origin on Brave Premium or enable the panel at brave://settings/system.

I'll keep using it. It's the best browser out there, FF is terrible and is managed by a shitty, corrupt company which deserves to disappear.

    This has to be a joke right…

    Like I can’t imagine any way this could be serious, cause brave literally inserted referral codes to steal money from creators. They also inject ads. Like… you have to be making a joke. There’s no way you’re serious.

    Okey bye IE bot. Hope to see ya in a few year when Edge finally reach you... So the IE dumb defender didn't disappear, they started using brave... This explain so much about how a company with this kind of action against the consumer can survive. They target the old IE fan boy with an humiliation kink.

    Not sure if I should block these users to reduce the ragebait or leave them to enjoy the comedy.

    Check out Helium. It’s what Brave was supposed to be. (And it uses Chromium.)
