It is in principle free open source software but it's development is heavily controlled Brave Software - it is not a truly free foundation-developed software project like Debian. The Brave Web Browser is free software under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. Installation may be a bit tricky since no GNU/Linux distribution includes it in their repositories. It's overall barely acceptable as a web browser, nothing more. Other aspects are also the same, it is essentially the Google's Chrome web browser with different branding and some additional features like web advertisement and tracker blocking, a built-in crypto currency wallet and a opt-in rewards system where users can get paid cryptocurrency for viewing advertisements that are built right into the browser. It's performance is within margin of error of other Chromium-based browsers like Google's Chrome. There are also mobile versions for Android and iOS. Brave is a Chromium-based free software web browser for GNU/Linux, Windows (32 and 64-bit) and Mac OS.
