I don't use it myself. I use firefox with some hardcore privacy configuration and LAN-level advertisement and tracker blocking instead.

I have some friends who use Brave. They like it because of the easy ad-blocking for the most part. I think it does a good job blocking Youtube advertisements, which is a big plus for them. I am of the opinion people should not be using Youtube, but more power to them XD
