Overview
Brave Browser is a fast, privacy-focused web browser built on Chromium — the same open-source project behind Google Chrome. Unlike most browsers, Brave automatically blocks ads, trackers, cookies, and fingerprinting scripts that invade your privacy. This means pages load faster, your data stays private, and your browsing feels cleaner.
Brave also rewards users with its optional Brave Rewards system, allowing you to earn Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing privacy-respecting ads. It includes a built-in Brave Wallet for managing cryptocurrencies and Web3 assets directly from the browser.
This package provides Brave Browser in .xdeb format — specially designed for xdeb-based systems (derived from Debian Testing).
It can be installed easily either via the terminal or the file manager (Dolphin).
