73? Brave?
Some kind of browser which is supposed to be awesome.
in order for it to work you need nodejs 5.5 and I am currently letting npm install all the dependencies (npm currently needs 918,9 MiB of RAM) and it takes for ever it seems >_<

72 Your Brave installation sounds a lot like my Octave installation. After about six hours of reading documentation, troubleshooting, deleting files, and watching Homebrew download and compile dependency after dependency, I finally got it to work.

And then it breaks every time OSX updates. Fortunately, brew upgrade octave handles that pretty quick.

73 this message is written using the brave-browser. in other words it works
(I also tested youtube which worked (I could even select 1080p) but it then broke when trying to access the forum in another tab. I guess that can happen with porgrams that are still in development :p)

75 brave is a browser that aims to block harmfull* adds by default and replace them with save adds. Or perhaps in the future allows you to keep all adds blocked and have you donate money to the site instead. At least, that is what I can read about it.

* with harmfull it means adds that track users, spread malware and other things like that.

74 doesn't every add track users?
75 and now you see the problem of todays internet :p
it used to not be this way now however most adds sadly enough do it. Some luckily don't but you probably don't get them because the ones that do are more profitatable. With brave however the clean adds are the only ones that you are supposed to get (in theory)
