Is Brave actually a good browser now? Did they rewrite it or something? Last time I looked it was a janky JavaScript mess.

The most effective ad blocker I've ever used. With that, it becomes better than chrome, in my opinion. Give it a spin, it's my daily driver for web dev as well ( just chrome debugger)

You might be thinking of Vivaldi. Brave is certainly buggy, but it's not written in Javascript.

The project is listed as 100% JavaScript on github https://github.com/brave/brave-browser

>This repository holds the build tools needed to build the Brave desktop browser for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

The web browser is here : https://github.com/brave/brave-core (8% of typescript)

It's better Chrome: no ads, faster (because no ads), some nice features on top. What's not to like?
it has a lot of sketchy telemetries
