Their website doesn't show any version for windows XP - blast! I sent an email pleading with them to put together a version for XP - if they respond I'll post it here.

[crimethink]

Will test it out tonight.

You shouldn't be running XP. If you don't want a more recent M$ OS, install Linux Mint.

BLOCKBUSTER! NEW WEB BROWSER TRASHES GOOGLE!

This made me happy.CREATOR OF FIREFOX WEB BROWSER BRENDAN EICH WAS KICKED OUT OF HIS OWN ORGANIZATION FOR NOT SUPPORTING SAME SEX MARRIAGE AND NOT EVER BACKING DOWN. THEY THEN TURNED FIREFOX INTO A DOGPILE. HE THEN WROTE A NEW WEB BROWSER AND HAS RELEASED IT AS THE "BRAVE" BROWSER. RUMOR ON THE STREET IS THAT IT IS GREAT, CHECK IT OUT, DOWNLOAD HERE (https://brave.com/downloads.html)

UPDATE: HA HA HA, HE'S PISSED WITH GOOGLE INTENTIONALLY SABOTAGING FIREFOX AND HAS PROGRAMMED THE NEW BROWSER TO BLOW GOOGLE AWAY!

YEP. To make Chrome look better (when really it was not) Google sabotaged Firefox by causing Firefox to re-load ads multiple times, which slowed it down badly. Google did this by checking which browser was accessing a web site, and if it saw Firefox, Google would intentionally trip it up with the analytics scripts and ad scripts that loaded multiple times under instruction from Google. There was nothing Firefox could do to fix it because it was external sabotage. So what did Brendan do to get even? He ripped Google's own Chrome to pieces, took out the crapware parts of it, and had it intentionally screw over the GOOGLE tampering.HA HA HA, BLOCKBUSTER: THE BRAVE BROWSER WILL TAKE GOOGLE ADS (IF YOU TELL IT TO) AND REPLACE THEM WITH ADS THAT ARE SERVED BY THE BRAVE BROWSER'S OWN AD SERVICE. BRAVE THEN GIVES A KICKBACK TO THE WEB SITES WHO HAD THEIR ADS SWITCHED AWAY FROM GOOGLE. TALK ABOUT REVENGE! THAT IS WORTH MORE THAN A LAUGH!

Way to go. Way to get even!GOOGLE IS LYING ABOUT CHROME'S POPULARITY ANYWAY:

http://82.221.129.208/firefox.gifBOTTOM LINE? IF BRENDAN EICH CAN MAKE A WEB BROWSER SO GREAT IT CAN SCORE THIS WELL AFTER TAKING SUCH A BEATING, YOU REALLY OUGHT TO CHECK OUT HIS NEW ONE (https://brave.com/downloads.html)

Just loaded it and am using it right now. Holy Cow!!! Smokin fast.

[Neuro]

I instinctively liked this guy immediately when I read the OP, so I have downloaded his browser app for iOS, and will check it out.

[Neuro]

Posting with it now! Not too different initial feel to Safari Browser...

[crimethink]

Reminds me of a combination of the best elements of Chrome and Opera.

[Joshua01]

Using it now. It's fast but we'll see how it does over the long term

[boogietillyapuke]

Downloaded it, but it's obvious that it's been downloaded to this iPad before. I have the same complaints that I have with chrome. No ability to import bookmarks, and if it were able to, can't sort them into alphabetical order like with chrome desktop version.

i don't use the desktop too much except for usenet downloads and as a media server. I'm too lazy to be typing URL's all over again.

I put it on my iPad, the import bookmarks missing was the first thing I noticed. Now I am trying Brave on my laptop. It doesn't seem to have the formatting problems I have encountered using Firefox.

[Joshua01]

I'm test driving it now. Seems to be very fast loading pages but is lacking some popular features (as you guys are saying). Needs more work but I love the speed factor

[brosil]

I'm using it at the moment and it's twice as fast as Firefox on my cheap tablet. The bookmark thing needs work but as fast as this loads, I can live with it.

[boogietillyapuke]

Loaded it on the desktop running Win 7. That version has the ability to load bookmarks from a HTML file. Haven't explored that option yet.

Java or Adobe Flash don't want to play with Brave yet. Probably other globalist shithead corps too.

Seems like a solid foundation, though.

Are we talking like jootube vids?

Up at the url box, to the right of it, there will be a little circle with a slash. Click that to allow scrips for a specific site. I didn't allow scripts completely.
This is how I got jootube vids to load.

Over on the side panel is the option for "Brave Site Settings" to turn the scripts on or off for a specific site.

I don't like that there is no ability to allow just one script for a site. Like you can with ghostery.

(https://twitter.com/SGTreport)URGENT: Dear @BrendanEich (https://twitter.com/BrendanEich)
I discovered today that my BRAVE account "is under review".
Am I to understand that BRAVE is now part of the Big Tech collusion to SILENCE and economically destroy leading Conservative and Christian voices?

Got it. Our automated system checks for 404 from verified channel and YouTube killed yours, so this tripped a false alarm. Our system should have taken censorship by YouTube into account here, very sorry for not catching. We will unsuspend and work to fix. Cc: @aekeus (https://twitter.com/aekeus)
