3. Tab hover cards & previews

If enabled, hover card appears when you hover over tab (instead of tooltip)
(Sorry it disappears every time I want to take screenshot)

How to enable? Enable brave://flags/#tab-hover-cards

Tab previews: You can also enable tab previews by enabling brave://flags/#tab-hover-card-images (but first you have to enable hover cards)

4. Quick bookmarks

The fastest way to access bookmarks:

Just create additional folder in bookmarks bar, move it to the left and move your favorite bookmarks here.

5. Automatically clear data and history on exit

You can set brave to always clear cookies, history, cache…

How to set? Go to brave://settings/clearBrowserData, select “on exit” tab, select the options you want and click “save”

P.S. It often works only after refreshing page (glitch)
