Is Firefox any more private/secure than Brave? (sopuli.xyz)

I've been using Brave for the past three or so years but I do know that Linux/privacy enthusiasts tend to swear by Firefox. Wanted to get people's thoughts on this topic to see if I should be making a potential switch. Thanks!

Again, this has nothing to do with technical issue regarding privacy or security. People are just making excuses. Don't use it if you prefer something else, but don't mix non-relevant stuff in a semi-technical discussion.

By the way, that's funny. In a similar way, I hope that you or other virtue-signaling people, don't buy stuff on Amazon (i.e., support them) as the are notoriously mistreating their warehouse workers. Yes, it's unrelated. I'm just point out a blatant hypocrisy.
