Last time I installed Brave, the new tab page had a link to a cryptocurrency news site (probably a paid placement).

If you want the least-gross behavior, it's not going to come from a for-profit startup.

Maybe not, but it seems to be the least annoying right now.

I've never seen it show me an ad (including paid placement type ads) so far. I guess if they junked up their new tab page with intrusive encouragement to start using Brave Rewards and Basic Attention Token (BAT) then that would sort of be the equivalent of what Firefox is doing...

It doesn't block ads very well for me on iOS, and it's really buggy and unstable. My Firefox experience is excellent on every device that supports it. It's unfortunate and frustrating that all iOS browsers are just Safari.
