I’m still testing Brave. I might have to go back to FireFox if I can’t get Brave and DDG to work with some websites.
Brave is great. It is based on the Chrome Browser code base.
For the websites that have issues, I reduce the security slider next to the address bar (Brave Shields). I normally do this if certain sites are trying to run scripts that I know are safe.
If the browser refuses to access a site that has an invalid certificate, there's a "trick" to bypass that. Make sure your mouse/cursor is focused on the webpage frame and type:
thisisunsafeand hit the <Enter> key.
Other browsers like IE offer a button to continue to websites it thinks are unsafe. Brave does not.
There are still 1-2 pages I can't get Brave to work with. If memory serves, the Free Credit Report and the 3 Credit Report websites had issues with Brave, so I just used Firefox. The IRS website may have been another. Both of those examples use the same credit report hooks to verify user identity, so that could be the common fail-point.
