It’s great, I’ve been using a couple years now. It’s a small glimpse into how the internet will eventually work, too, with their BAT (basic attention token), which you can earn if you do allow/watch ads (it’s a crypto/with monetary value), or you can turn ads off. You can cash out your BAT, hold it in a wallet, or use it to fund your favorite content creators and websites. It essentially gets rid of the current ad-based system of internet, where YOU are the product, and they collect all your data to target ads. And again, you have the choice as to whether or not have ads in which you “give your attention,” to (and are rewarded for doing so. And those rewards can then be given to reward the sites you like and help fund them).
Along with that, very privacy-based (built on chromium but has NO affiliation to Chrome. It’s just the framework it’s built on, and is powered by Ethereum, a game changing blockchain technology that will usher in internet 3.0). Promise I have no affiliation with them, just been a user for a long time and a huge supporter of them, their vision, how it works, the principle behind it, etc.
