hey Brendan,
I can see you're getting a lot of negative feedback here, so as a hopefully countervailing force: this was the thread that finally got me to try Brave on my iPad, iPhone, and mac. I like it so far!
I never thought I'd use any ad blockers, purely on moral grounds. But so many sites have gotten completely unusable in the last year or so: half a dozen auto-playing videos, some of which follow you around the page, text that won't stop flying around the screen long enough for you to read it, etc. It's starting to seem like there is no other choice. If I used it for nothing else, Brave is a whole lot better than Safari on iOS for blocking unnecessary crap.
You really shouldn't get into it with trolls, though. You've had quite a few comments in the last day or so that ended up flagged dead. Not a good look for a CEO.
