I am still not convinced

Mozilla still has a massive say in web standards

I don't know if we can say this with less than 3% of market share.

until a better alternative comes out.

I like Cromite a lot. Yeah, Brave has a lot of scandals, most of them because trying to make money however they can

largely because of engine diversity.

As an end user, I choose a browser looking for features I need.

Cromite

That's still Chromium though.

Same, though engine diversity is also a huge factor. I actually used Opera until they abandoned their rendering engine, and then went back to Firefox.

When Firefox doesn't cut it, I use Brave with the crypto BS disabled. It has a great ad blocker and is just as good as other Chrome browsers at compatibility.
