I really like Brave and what it is trying to do. I've been using it as my main browser (with the brave engine) and I have no real complaints. Firefox has been making me mad lately(more-so the corporation and its stupidity than the browser itself) and so...Brave.
However, I will not recommend it to my father/mother. I think it is too geared towards techies, and full of traps to confuse people less involved in online tech culture. All this talk of crypto/wallets/coins/ads and the associated buttons and icons everywhere will just confuse the hell out of them. You need to spend a bunch of time disabling stuff or setting things up that they will just not do. Kind of a shame, because the out-of-the-box experience is really good for privacy and ad blocking, etc...
