	Thank you for clarifying the Safari vs. Brave thing. It worked fine in Safari Anyhow, it looks like we forgot to put in a script for Brave which is needed for the add bookmark via Menulet or Dock menu feature. We'll fix it in the next version. And we'll look at the crash reports which were included in your report too.

Just a note BookMacster (under High Sierra) likes to crash when attempting to manually bookmark a URL in Brave. (I submitted a zip file via your Dropbox system this morning and mistakenly said the crashes were happening using Safari but then realized BookMacster is crashing using Brave.)

	Hello, sporkman. Thank you for contacting us. The news is that support for the Brave Browser, and all other new features, is still on hold pending resolution of all known issues with macOS 10.14 Mojave. Regarding Ungoogled Chromium, the current version of BookMacster will not fully support, (with automatic syncing) this unless it uses the same file locations and bundle identifier as the FreeSMUG Chromium which we support. Maybe they do and maybe they don't. (Because FreeSMUG was the only Chromium until recently, we refer to it in our documentation and user interfacee as simply Chromium. It is confusing!) If not, you can still import from and export to almost any browser manually by clicking in the menu: File > Import from only… or Export to only… > Choose file (advanced)… and then choosing its Bookmarks file (you need to know where to find that) while it is not running.

Installs extensions from the Chrome web store, so no hassle with another review and approval regime. Bookmarks structure exactly the same as that of Google Chrome. So you should see Brave support in a future version of BookMacster and Synkmark. Any news on this? Just installed it today after digging around and it seems pretty decent. Of note, it seamlessly imported everything from my Chrome install. I'm not liking the direction chrome is going with their new login scheme that's always nagging to login on sites that support google's auth. Alternately, any issues with using "Ungoogled Chromium"? Should that one just be plug and play? https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium

	I've been using Brave for a while now too. It's not the best browser ever, but it's a solid one for sure. I hope it does gain some more popularity and becomes supported by you guys.

	I'll second this request for Brave. Both my wife and I use it. Agree with you Jerry that there has been a lot of browsers come and go, but this one seems to have some staying power. Thanks!

	I would say: Not this month and not next month, because our work queue is quite full. We might have time to take a look at it after macOS 10.14 Mojave is released. We've seen many "next big thing" web browsers come and go over the years.

	When will BookMacster support the BRAVE Browser? (https://brave.com/features/) This is a Firefox-derived browser which is gaining popularity for its built-in privacy enhancing functions, and its innovative token-based compensation scheme. (Micropayments to websites.)
