I've been using Brave for the past three or so years but I do know that Linux/privacy enthusiasts tend to swear by Firefox. Wanted to get people's thoughts on this topic to see if I should be making a potential switch. Thanks!

Brave isn't more private than Firefox but depending on the platform that Firefox is on, Firefox might be less secure than Brave.

Still waiting for Firefox Android to be secure enough for me to ditch Brave.

OOL, what's up with firefox android's app?

IIRC something along the lines of it not having proper site isolation, making it less secure.
