Brave Browser & Firefox 57

[Spearmint2]

Anyone know when FF 57 will come into repository for Mint Linux? Will there also be the Brave browser made available through repository in near future? It seems for Ubuntu and variants thereof they have only the 64 bit version available for Brave. There may be a 32 bit for those using Fedora. Is Brave using TOR's privacy browsing software in it?

Many favorite extensions used in Firefox will die when 57 is available.

Firefox updates in Mint repository usually are posted within a week of the release. Here is the Firefox release schedule:

As far as using Tor's privacy according to the Brave website it seems to still be in the development stage. To quote from the Brave website:"The “private” or “incognito” browsing mode that others offer is not truly private. Those tabs mostly stop other people that use your device from seeing where you’ve been. Brave’s private tab stops trackers and will soon feature "Tor in the tab," providing even deeper privacy."

Seems some youtubers are upset since the Brave browser blocks all youtube ads in the videos.
