Brave Browser Debloating Guide

Brave is an excellent, privacy-focused browser, but its default configuration comes packed with extra features that many users consider bloat. This guide will walk you through how to get rid of the bloat, hide the ads, and disable background services for a clean, minimal browsing experience.

Part 1: Clearing the Visual Bloat

The default start page and toolbars are crowded with Brave "cards," news feeds, and native crypto shortcuts. Fortunately, the surface-level clutter is easy to hide directly from the UI.

• Clean the Start Page: Open a new tab, click the Customize button in the bottom right corner, and toggle off Brave News, Cards, and any unwanted background images or stats.
• Clean the Toolbar: Right-click on the Brave Rewards, Brave Wallet, Brave VPN, and Leo AI icons located next to the URL bar, and select Hide.

# Based on https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/blob/master/lib/jekyll/tags/include.rb,
# provides a transclude block that maintains Jekyll include semantics. Files can
# pass parameters to transcludes via the `include` object, with the addition of
# {{ include.content }} which includes the block content.
#
# Transcludes must be located in Jekyll's _includes dir.
