I think we need all support we can get to fight Google on this, so I welcome Brave here actually.

Some sites don't adhere to standards, it's like old IE all over again. You go to load the site on FF and some check form doesn't work. This happens on 3 sites that I have to use.

I left chrome for FF. Used it almost exclusively for a few years, it's good enough. Recently it got some needed boosts via Microsoft not screwing them.

About 6 months ago I started working with IPFS a lot. Brave baked in support and it's pretty good, so I use brave as my primary and FF as my secondary. I was using some tools to sync bookmarks, but now I just pop into FF and import from brave every now and then.

Brave is better and anti-fingerprinting, if someone is going to sell my data, I think I'd rather give it to brave than google.
