Brave is a web browser based on chromium that claims to be faster and safer by blocking tracking scripts and ads.

At the moment, Funtoo only ships brave as binary.

root # emerge www-client/brave-bin

If Brave does not start and shows an error about sandboxing, you may need to enable userns in your kernel.

To do so, you can append the following line into /etc/sysctl.conf:

/etc/sysctl.conf

kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 1

and run sysctl -p.

Running brave with the --no-sandbox flag is not recommended for security reasons.
