Update from Casa Bish...
I've been using Brave on my Mac desktop simply as my YouTube portal. No pre-roll... no embedded... just the content. It's got to the point where if I inadvertently click on a YouTube link while in Safari... and up pops a pre-roll... even the neighbors hear the cries of WTAF! coming from the basement.

Lee... I juggle three browsers with no problems. Brave for YouTube (and other stuff if I'm there). Safari for all my day-to-day stuff, and Chrome for any Google stuff (hangouts whatever) or Opus comms stuff. Usually I only fire up Chrome when needed as it's the most obnoxious and demanding of all three.

Bish, I also juggle browsers (video at 11). It's tiresome, but as you say, none can do it all. I agree that Chrome is the most onerous and troublesome, but with all the app tie-ins it's hard to ignore. I like Brave's relative security but I also want to support sites I like by allowing their (often obnoxious) advertising to show. Sometimes I try Safari to see how my web page looks on it or just to be daring and different, being as I am a brave brave soul.
