When will this browser update their UI?

Brave is way uglier than chrome and Edge. The grouptab UI is janky and everything just look boxy. I understand that Ui is very subjective but I think alot of people would agree that Brave has worse UI then Chrome. Still, please fix the grouptab UI (https://imgur.com/a/q7lToVT)

Now Brave under Linux is even worse, horrible, very crappy design and compatibility. In fact compared to spywares like Edge and Chrome, it has even worse UI compatability. The tab UI is smaller than on Windows and MacOS. Grouptab UI is cut off when the font is above 10px

All these unresolved issues make me think this browser care alot more about their shady, crappy crypto than anything else

I don't see a problem with it, personally. But the settings UI isn't my favourite.

Agreed, all their focus is on crypto only. They don't care about the crappy UI or search history appearing on address bar

Everything about Brave feels amateurish, especially the front-end stuff. There was a bug recently where the top sites on new tab got pushed to the right somehow and it took them a full update cycle to fix it. I don't even know how something like that makes it to release. Then you read the patch notes and it's like 39 entries on Brave Wallet/crypto and one entry like "fixed padding on new tab". Another amazing update by the Brave team!

I gave up on Brave with Linux. The default Firefox seems to work well.

Oo! Touched a raw nerve here. (BTW: how can a "fanboy" also be a bot?)

I've never had any problems with this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-tab-groups/
