It gets my goat that people think it's a good option. There are plenty of articles explaining some of the many issues with it, but a few are:

  1. It's run by anti-LGBTQ+ crypto bros.
  2. It has ads right out of the box.
  3. It collected donations towards people who never signed up for them - then held them to ransom in exchange for the kind of information you should never share on the Internet.
  4. They're a for-profit advertising company. "Privacy-centric" my elbow.

Nowhere near. I use it at work, but Brave still outshines it. Most people haven't tried Brave because of the icky factor of the CEO, fair enough, but then they don't know it just works without fuss and that's why people use it. And Android, as I mentioned

Nowhere near how? I don't think I've ever seen an ad with Firefox + ublock in several years of use. How can brave be better?

Firefox on android is dogshit

Never had an issue with Firefox on Android. Maybe you're going to some sketchy websites; I don't know.

Can you elaborate?

What problems have you had with it? I've used it for several years now and honestly can't remember a time when it fell short.

Most people don't even know who Brendan Eich is, much less that he owns Brave Software.

If you want to use Brave use Brave

No need to shit on browsers that are on the same side
