Brave is a new browser that offers privacy protection and supports the installation of Chrome extensions. As you already know, it also comes with built-in support for torrent downloading and video streaming.
The browser allows not only experienced downloaders but also complete beginners to download torrents instantly, without any hassle.
With the advent of fast internet, fast tools were needed for data transfer and video streaming services.
That's how the Brave browser came about. Launched early last year, it was originally designed to protect your privacy. The app, starting this month, started using the Chromium engine.
Brave used the Chromium engine from the start, but didn't use it for the app's UI. The company's developers had developed Muon, a custom "more secure" fork of Electron, and used it for the browser's user interface.
The company announced plans to replace Muon with Chromium in early 2018, and it seems they managed to make it happen just before the deadline. So the latest Brave releases use Chromium for both performance and the user interface.
The company says this move has several benefits: initial benchmarks show that load times improved by 22% on average compared to versions using Muon UI. Among the benefits, it is worth mentioning that the new browser supports Chrome extensions.
Those interested can download any extension they want from the Chrome Web Store.
