    There are some places where yes. Brave has VERY good, balanced ad blocker built-in.

      I guess my point was that adding uBlock Origin to Vivaldi is a simple 5 second process, so the claim that it is unsuitable as a replacement for Brave because the default ad/tracker blocker is less effective seems kind of pointless.

      By default, sure. But uBlock is way more powerful when you configure it. Seriously, take a look at their wiki. I doubt that Brave lets you choose exactly which domains to connect to on a per-site basis. And do you really want an advertising company to make your adblocker? They’ve done shadier stuff.

        Their point is to be an ethical ad company. So i still kinda trust them. Also, I use Firefox + uBlock Origin on Hard Mode both on PC and Android. Brave has really good, balanced ad blocker which does not break sites but block ads and trackers.
