    Brave might have started as a basic Chromium fork, but the various privacy/security features they added do make them standout now.

      It is really disingenuous to say “X is just a skin of Y” just because they share the same browser engine or are forked from the same browser. Like you say, there are a lot of changes.

        I feel that it is relevant to bring up that it is a fork of chromium. Less informed users who are leaving Chrome (or almost every other browser) for ideological reasons may be uninformed about what is under the hood and not know why someone would choose a Firefox based browser instead.
