Nomics.com Is Now A Brave Verified Publisher (Plus My Experience With Brave) - (Ep. 0044)

] I thought it was going to be there. I thought I was going to completely switch over to Brave. They did a lot of things that I think make a lot of sense. I think they've basically forked Chrome, at least the open sourced parts of Chrome, so you can create different workspaces and personas that have saved cookies and bookmarks. There's a state behind [00:01:00] each of these environments that you can switch in and out of, and that's cool. 
] and it has a real emphasis on privacy which I like, and blocking third party cookies and on, and on, and on. They've done a really good job there, and I'm happy that we are now verified in Brave, or as a Brave publisher. 
] on the other side. They can hear me, they can see me, I can see them, but I can't hear them. I've done a lot of Google Hangouts. I'm pretty sure that I have it configured correctly, but I can't seem to hear the person on the other line.

But we're not looking at it to be a huge source of revenue. Maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised. I don't know.

It's almost at the point that I can start using it on a daily basis, even though it's not quite there yet.

For the most part, I believe all Chrome plugins now work in the Brave browser, which is nice, so I can use my password manager and a bunch of other plugins for Chrome that I've become dependent upon, like those working in Brave, which is really nice. And it seems to be faster than Chrome [
There's a few things that didn't work. One, when I use Google Hangouts in the Brave browser, I can't seem to hear the person [
The other issue, and I'm sure there's more, is that I can't seem to print to anything but PDF in the Brave browser. It doesn't connect to printers on my system for some reason. I have no idea. [
But I'm really glad that there is a team that's focused on some of the UX components of distributed finance or this ... I don't know, whatever we call this space; the crypto-sphere. I think Brave has come a long way. It does look like they took out the MetaMask wallet, or the native MetaMask wallet. [
