i've been using brave for about 4 years in a large part because of its sync system, which only exposes you to brave's servers to be an intermediary for your browser instances to synchronise configurations, using a key that only lives on your own devices, and is encrypted by this and they identify each other through the public key that is derived from it

it is faster than firefox, it doesn't nag you to enable DRM widevine DRM, and you can basically disable all of the shitcoin features of brave without nagging you either, though they are all enabled by default.

it has saved my bacon several times from losing my configurations, bookmarks and i don't really use the password manager that goes with it, though that is convenient too, just one instance on my mobile and one on my desktop and i never lose my web browser configs, and by that i mean all of the extensions are also synced up, and importantly, the 2fa that a lot of sites require, this is also synced, and you just have to have two instances, it can be just two computers, but the phone and desktop/laptop setup is very handy

mozilla foundation is a spook funded company, and their codebase is less well written than google's chrome browser engine, to the point, that the majority of apps that use browser engines are built on chrome engine

i don't like google, but it's so good even microsoft quit wasting their money maintaining internet explorer and now just use chrome engine as well

linux and mozilla have started to become a really big problem for privacy and stability... ever since linux kernel version 6 it's gotten steadily more inconsistent at supporting hardware, and mozilla browser is creepy, i mean really creepy, just open up a new instance of it on a new login and tell me what you think about their bleating declarations of caring about your privacy

while they nag you to use DRM, which essentially hands over full control of your browser engine to untrustworthy applications and servers
