- Brave sells Origin to strip added features—a $60 one-time fee (free on Linux).
- Origin removes email aliases, Leo AI, VPN, Wallet, Speedreader, and more via a toggleable panel or standalone client.
- You can buy Origin on Brave Premium or enable the panel at brave://settings/system.
Funny - are there any other known instances in the history of software where you have to pay extra to remove actual features?
Also, don’t use Brave.
I’ll keep using it. It’s the best browser out there, FF is terrible and is managed by a shitty, corrupt company which deserves to disappear.
Check out Helium. It’s what Brave was supposed to be. (And it uses Chromium.)
It’s a good one, but still in alpha and only Windows for the moment. Keeping an eye on it as alternative somewhat later.
I’m fine with Brave, thanks.
I run Brave on all my systems.
But we’ll keep recommending something else.
It’s not working very well, at least for FF, which keeps hemorrhaging users (deservedly).
Is Helium or something like it available on iOS?
This has to be a joke right…
Like I can’t imagine any way this could be serious, cause brave literally inserted referral codes to steal money from creators. They also inject ads. Like… you have to be making a joke. There’s no way you’re serious.
The only joke here is the crap browser that FF is. Bye.
Okey bye IE bot. Hope to see ya in a few year when Edge finally reach you… So the IE dumb defender didn’t disappear, they started using brave… This explain so much about how a company with this kind of action against the consumer can survive. They target the old IE fan boy with an humiliation kink.
He was so upset he threw a fit and downvoted anyone who didn’t parrot his ideals
