I think Brave is at least mostly open source. Their builds are public and come from their github repo. I think they might throw in some proprietary bits during packaging (maybe related to drm or crypto or ads?) but I’m not 100% certain.
I’ve been tying to convince myself to use Brave for like 6 months but their crypto and ad history makes me wary.
Brave isn’t open source either as I recall.

My understanding is that the open source part is basically just the underlying Chromium engine, but all the UI code that drives it is proprietary.
Ah, gross
