Just yesterday I was searching for photos in Brave. Right from the outset without clicking on anything, there was a huge, unclosable banner taking up a third of the screen that was an ad for Etsy or something. I tried to go to settings to change it to how it was before, but I was confronted with another ad in the settings:

“Want ad-free search results? Upgrade to Search Premium™ today!”

Time to finally make that switch to Firefox, I guess.
