I'm using Brave for a few months now both on desktop and mobile so I'm all for that, but you know you can use Chrome extensions to stop ads, right? AdBlock Plus is quite fine.
I haven't tried brave till now but have heard about them for few months will give it a try later on.
Talking about all the pop up ads or annoying autoplay in chrome, adblock works really well. I am using chrome for more than 2 years without any big issues or trouble.
