I’m going to paste a reply I got in regards to Brave and why you should change to a different browser

  1. Brave is an advertising company, that blocks everyone, but them. Forcing over people and companies into their system.

  2. They’re heavily in the blockchain ecosystem, with their own worthless crypto.

  3. They take from open source projects (uBlock, Chromium, etc), but threaten legal action when someone forks them.

  4. They install bloat/spyware on your Windows system (later claimed it was a mistake).

  5. Brave, and its CEO is right-wing, lobbying against things like same-sex marriage.
