I've got antiX 23. That release still had a 'base' along with 'full'. Full 
has LibreOffice and other stuff I do not use. I don't know why the dropped 
that option for 26.

I use Brave and it does get updated frequently. Most distros, including 
MX, install Firefox and LibreOffice whether you want them or not. The 
Fedora box has neither. FF was available so I didn't go digging but Brave 
doesn't do Khan Academy videos the last time I tried but that was last 
year. 

If I want something descended from the diseased Mozilla tree I use 
LibreWolf. Yeah, I do use Thunderbird; I never said I was consistent.
