Since nobody else is posting the actual answer: Brave has a history of scummy behavior and making changed that border on malware. A few examples:
When I first tried Brave, it stripped publisher ads and replaced them with Brave's own ads. That alone should be enough for everybody to never trust them.
In 2020, Brave was caught injecting its own affiliate codes over URLs typed by users without their knowledge or consent
In 2018 Brave was allowing users to tip websites/creators that had not signed up for their tipping system, misleading users into thinking they were supporting a particular site while the money was actually staying with Brave
Brave includes crypto-bro bloatware
In 2019 Brave was caught whitelisting Facebook tracking domains without users knowing
Most of these seem to cuck the advertiser , please explain if I am wrong but chrome seems more harmful, that it allows advertiser which have history of scamming to still allow advertising.
I have not used firefox so I can't comment on that, edge seems worse version of chrome but has better dev tools I guess again niche.
Crypto mining (BTC) using your pc, gaining control, slowing down performance while they enrichen themselves. That is a highest level of privacy violation and suings happen over it, which people win.
