Download Brave 0.23.19

Brave is a web browser based on Chromium and muon as an associated framework. At the helm of the company behind Brave is Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript and one of the founders of Mozilla. This browser focuses on improving online security and provides an alternative system for financially supporting content providers. The idea behind this is that advertising is a website’s biggest source of income. But due to intrusive advertisements, many people use ad blockers and websites lose their revenue. The developers have released Brave 0.23.19 for desktop with the following changes:
