Brave Origin It's now available. For those of you who are surprised or don't know what this is about, it's a release—specifically, the stable version of Brave—without almost everything that makes the brave lion's browser special. You can also read the article we published in AprilThis was when Brave Origin was still in development. That phase has now ended, and the first stable version has been released.
To summarize, Brave is a free browser, but it offers special features that, on the one hand, give it a certain personality, and on the other, allow the project to generate revenue. Origin It removes things like cryptocurrency wallets and Tor sessions.and it retains the Chromium engine, Brave interface and little else but what's needed to allow us to use a fully functional browser.
Brave Origin launches its first stable
As we mentioned, Brave Origin doesn't provide any indirect benefits to the project, so they have to charge for its use. price will be € 59.99This is a one-time payment. It's available for computers (Windows, Linux, and macOS) and mobile devices (Android and iOS). For mobile versions, Origin can only be used by installing the standard browser and enabling the option. For the desktop version, there are also standalone applications available.
Linux users have several ways to use it, or rather, two, but one of them varies depending on the Linux distribution. Installation commands are available at this linkOn the other hand, we can go to the settings of a normal Brave (the usual one), search for "origin" (direct link to search(provided you click from within Brave) and click "Continue with Origin free on Linux." This will disable all special features and take you to Brave Origin. A section with different options will also appear so you can enable the ones you want to use.
The version of Brave Origin that we installed directly does not allow us to activate those special features.
It's worth noting that when you launch the browser for the first time, you'll see a window advising you against using the free version—a message some might call passive-aggressive. If you accept it, you'll be using the free version without extras and won't see that warning again.
It's a good option for those who want a good Chrome browser without the downsides of Google. And if someone prefers a Chromium-based browser even further removed from all of this, they can always opt for... Helium.
