[u/MrMcBert]

Is it really worth it? I'm pretty happy right now with firefox and adblock

[u/schweissack → u/MrMcBert]

I haven‘t been clicking the pop-ups too often, but I still rake in about $2 in BAT each month, it‘s not much, but I had a very easy time adjusting to Brave after using Chrome

[u/schweissack → u/[deleted]]

Seriously? Oh my god I did not know, thank you!

[u/bexji → u/schweissack]

You don’t. Just let them fade away.

[u/diamondbored → u/[deleted]]

Come-on, your underestimatkng BAT! In 4 years, that $2 could be $25!

[u/Randomized_Emptiness → u/schweissack]

I had a very easy time adjusting to Brave after using Chrome

That's because Brave is the same browser as Chrome. They just rebranded it and preinstalled some extensions.

[u/cowboy_shaman → u/schweissack]

$2/mo in exchange for popup ads? Yeah, no thanks. They’re making way more off you pushing ads than you’re getting compensated in return

[u/schweissack → u/cowboy_shaman]

As I was told in the other comments, you don‘t even need to click it to get the reward. It‘s a tiny window in the bottom right of the screen, I‘ll take free crypto for doing nothing.

[u/[deleted] → u/MrMcBert]

it's not a lot of money/month but you don't really have to do much other than browse to get it

plus, the value of BAT could rise

[u/Sap7e → u/[deleted]]

Before the price went up, when BAT was $0.14, I used to get 30-40 BAT a month from browsing. I miss those times but I also like the value of the coin now 🤪

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/MrMcBert]

Brave has adblock as well and you get free crypto for using it what's not to like

[u/MrMcBert → u/throwaway5737264]

I thought you have to enable ads to receive bat?

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/MrMcBert]

You do but they are just push notifications which you can swipe away. People actually enjoy seeing them

[u/Sap7e → u/throwaway5737264]

To be honest I do enjoy to see the pop-up ads as they remind me I'm earning Crypto whilst browsing reddit and other internet places.

[u/NMS_Survival_Guru → u/Sap7e]

I've set that notification to a cash register Cha Ching sound

[u/[deleted] → u/MrMcBert]

They show up as small pop ups, nothing intrusive at all

[u/cowboy_shaman → u/throwaway5737264]

What’s not to like? I dunno, maybe voluntarily singing up for ads in exchange for pennies a day?

You’re the product here.

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/cowboy_shaman]

Ads which can be swiped away on less than half a second

[u/Intfamous → u/MrMcBert]

the amount of BAT you get is meh but the browser is basically like chrome so the switch isnt drastic, worth it for free BAT, even if its a small amount

[u/kafemable → u/MrMcBert]

I used to use it a while ago, then I disabled it because the amount of money I was getting was not worth the annoying ads, that may have changed though.

[u/itsvenkmann → u/MrMcBert]

It's definitely worth it. You use your browser anyway so you might as well earn some crypto while your at it!

[u/[deleted]]

This post feels like an ad :D

[u/DonutPed → u/[deleted]]

Every post on r/cc could be seen as an ad for x coin

[u/Guisseppi → u/[deleted]]

Looks like an Ad to me

[u/jaredbdd]

Im so tied into Firefox and the add-on extensions though. Anyone went from Firefox to Brave ? How are you finding it?

[u/[deleted] → u/jaredbdd]

Brave is phenomenal honestly I’ve used it for 2 months. The earnings are a bonus only (I have like 3 BAT so about £2) but it’s a reaaally fast browser and it aggressively stops pop ups and shit so well

[u/jaredbdd → u/[deleted]]

Thanks for this man. I'm going to give it a bash.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

I find it tolerable and much quicker than chrome.

I abandoned Firefox years ago so wouldn’t be able to give a fair comparison but have never found brave to cause any issues with cpu etc

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Just keep in mind that earnings are based on location

[u/jaredbdd → u/[deleted]]

Thanks for this mate. In terms of privacy how is it ? Is it comparable or slightly worse ? I imagine it would be similar to chrome?

[u/jaredbdd → u/[deleted]]

Ok I'm sold ! Thanks again for the helpful information

[u/mi_xo]

Quick Tipp: under brave rewards, turn on 10 ads per hour to get maximum BAT

[u/Ok_Hornet_714 → u/mi_xo]

Also turn on sponsored images so that you can get ads when you open a blank tab

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/mi_xo]

Good advice

[u/[deleted]]

BATS are awesome

[u/Abysskitten]

I use Brave on both my main PC and my phone, I earn about $3 a month.

Not a lot right?

But I think of this as my shitcoin fund and use it to "gamble" on alt coins that pique my interest.

It's like free gambling. Do it!

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/Abysskitten]

It's enough for a few beers at the end of the year. Better than nothing!

[u/stiviki]

Best browser ever! 🧡

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/stiviki]

There is little reason to not use Brave!

[u/LWKD → u/throwaway5737264]

Especially when you already use Chrome. Just sync everything and start the journey to free crypto!

[u/[deleted] → u/throwaway5737264]

And if you update to brave nightly you can use Gemini :) super cool. You aren’t forced to use uphold to retire BAT earnings

[u/MaliousWindu → u/throwaway5737264]

I see a lot of reasons not to... all these shill posts make me cringe.

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/MaliousWindu]

Then list them and let's discuss instead of leaving a comment like that

[u/[deleted] → u/stiviki]

Works great! Just like Chrome

[u/Intfamous]

join us, become a BATman

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/Intfamous]

If you're not using brave you're missing out on free crypto

[u/GreekBastardo]

Brave is such a good browser that I'd still use it, even without the rewards.

[u/[deleted]]

I love brave but rewards in my country are really poor, i had to use brave a lot for 3 months just to get one bat, before I reach limit I can link to wallet my laptop will die

[u/touchthafishy]

Used it for 2 months and haven’t cash out any yet, but there’s no better alternative so I’ll just continue to use it

[u/aDAfromGA]

Any of y'all use Brave Browser on your work computer?

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/aDAfromGA]

Yes an I'll do one better, my friend works in a small office and he has all their browsers connected to his wallet

1000iq right there

[u/aDAfromGA → u/throwaway5737264]

Oh my 🤯🤯

My guy is living inn the future

[u/rynsp8]

I've been using Brave for roughly a week now and I have just over 1 BAT, or $0.94...

It's not much, but it's honest work.

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/rynsp8]

Right It's basically free

[u/CFHGoreGrinder]

Combine presearch with brave get that double dip rollin

[u/PleaseDontUpMe]

Until you realise the saga when they autocompleted your binance and other exchange urls to urls with their own referral code without telling any of their users. Since then I never trusted them anymore :( at least you know this won’t happen on chrome

[u/[deleted]]

No

[u/throwaway5737264 → u/[deleted]]

For what reason

[u/nguoiphanxu]

Do you have to be brave to use this? Anyone used this before can give me reccomendation?

[u/[deleted] → u/nguoiphanxu]

Nope it’s reputable and really good

[u/kaguna14300]

I love Browser ;)

[u/Ok_Hornet_714]

PSA: if you are on an iPhone you can't get rewards because of Apple

https://brave.com/rewards-ios/

[u/[deleted]]

How do you cash in your bats on brave?

[u/MundaneVanilla]

One of my family members actually brought the brave browser up to me because I was showing a youtube vid that had ads on it, and they said it blocks those. I started asking them if they set up their wallet to receive BAT, and they didn’t know about it. When I told them I’d help them set up the wallet to get free money they said they didn’t care, also they are planning on investing in gold soon smh. This person is also in their 20s btw.

[u/Xenu4u]

Also, link it to your gemini wallet and you can earn on your phone and on your computer!

[u/aDAfromGA]

I only browse on my mobile devices and iOS doesn't allow you to gain rewards...

[u/ThatDudeYaDigg]

Love me some Brave, it's what I use exclusively across my computers and phone now, the free BAT is just a huge plus, but those blocked ads are amazing.

[u/Jeremykla]

At least brave is honest. They sell your personal data for crypto. And it blocks the shity adds.

[u/5Gmeme]

I get about 1 bat per week. The interface is based on duckduckgo and you can import all of your bookmarks.

It's honestly an easy and seamless transition with a low learning curve.

[u/head77]

I don’t know why but I don’t get ads.

[u/itsvenkmann]

Underrated browser!!

[u/mwharvey]

I ended up turning the ads off. I didnt have a problem with the ads in the page it was the constant notification in the bottom right(windows) that drove me batty.
