- Has anybody tried the great new privacy browser "Brave" on this device? Is it working well?

Thank you
I haven't tried Brave on the Mimas, so I can't help you there. But I wanted to mention that mine did not have any of the Google Apps pre-installed. Not even the Google Playstore which required me to enable the Google framework first. (I haven't updated to the latest firmware though, so perhaps somebody else can confirm that's still the case.)

Edited to Add: Have you used an eink device before? They are pretty much unusable for video, and can be frustrating to use to view web-pages because of the grey-scale nature of eink which can make certain elements hard to see or even invisible.
