    Comments about Iridium Browser as an Alternative to Brave

    This is certainly a good replacement for Brave. Both Brave and Iridium and based on the Chromium code base and both are adjusted to maximize privacy in browsing. However, Iridium has done it in a more flexible way, whilst Brave even vets which addons it permits you to install. My guess is you'd be happier with Iridium.
