Privacy aside, in my experience over a long time Brave load up and response time is significantly faster than Firefox. And Brave renders the windowing geometry and toolbars correctly on Linux, while Firefox does not. I also do not consider Mozilla free speech friendly or privacy friendly because of this:
"We need more than deplatforming"
There is no question that social media played a role in the siege and take-over of the US Capitol on January 6."
https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/we-need-more-than-deplatforming/
There was no 'siege' or 'takeover' of the capitol. Nobody stormed the place with guns or weapons. That is a fantasy tale. This choice of politically charged words turns the reality of the event into a fictional lie. This is all political theater. It's a patent lie. Those who are going along with this lie to promote censorship are a wart on a worm's rump.
A few FBI agents and FBI-paid provocateurs smashed some stuff and made some noise, then the clowns on Capitol hill who organized for and gave the orders for the FBI to do this, called it an "insurrection." So Mozilla is promoting censorship and deplatforming based on a fake insurrection. Just. Like. The. Nazis. And. Communists. did during WWII to crack down on Jews, Gypsies, and non-Catholic Christians.
Mozilla can keep their voluntary fascist browser.
