|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Brave is a web browser focused on privacy and speed. In some tests Brave is up
|
|
|
|
|
to 3 times faster than Chrome and Firefox. It does this by blocking
|
|
|
|
|
advertisements and tracking scripts before they even get a chance to load.
|
|
|
|
|
Beside the speed improvements this also saves a lot of power and data, very
|
|
|
|
|
useful for mobile phones.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Websites look much cleaner without all those advertisements. I don't like
|
|
|
|
|
putting ads on pixeldrain either, but I need the money to keep the website
|
|
|
|
|
running. Brave tries to solve this by giving users the choice if they want to
|
|
|
|
|
see ads. If you opt in to seeing ads from Brave you will receive notifications
|
|
|
|
|
with promotional offers once in a while. Brave protects your privacy by putting
|
|
|
|
|
the logic for showing relevant ads directly in the browser itself. This way your
|

|
|
|
browser history never leaves your computer and the tech giants can't follow you
|
|
|
|
|
around the web. The earnings from these ads are distributed between the websites
|
|
|
|
|
which you love most, a small cut goes to Brave itself for developing the
|
|
|
|
|
browser, and some of it goes to you. That's right, you get paid for viewing ads!

The money that you get from viewing ads (and receiving free token grants) goes
|
|
|
|
|
into a cryptocurrency wallet which is built right into the browser. Once you
|
|
|
|
|
have earned some rewards you have a few options. You can choose to automatically
|
|
|
|
|
distribute them between websites which you spend the most time on, you can tip
|
|
|
|
|
your favourite websites by pressing the tip button in the address bar or you can
|
|
|
|
|
convert the money to your own currency and deposit it to your bank account.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
Of course I would really appreciate it if you tipped some coins to pixeldrain
|
|
|
|
|
once in a while ;-)
