I'm not usually one to do this sort of thing but you're saying the browser created by a guy who got fired from Mozilla in 2014 for donating to orgs against gay marriage is more ethical to use than firefox?

I'm saying using the browser that aims to put privacy first is better than Firefox, yes. I don't really care about the past personal beliefs of the staff because that doesn't actually make any difference on the product itself, it's just virtue signaling. I'll keep using Brave which values my privacy, you can keep using whatever the hell other browser you want that doesn't. Simple as that.

Well considering Brave secretly whitelisted Facebook trackers in the past without telling people I'd say they're not really the best option when it comes to the whole valuing privacy thing. That's not about personal beliefs it's about them doing things that deliberately compromise users' privacy.
