I currently use Brave and am curious about the pros and cons of both since I see many people recommend Firefox.

    It is for the most part but truthfully it can be a pain for users who don’t want to configure it due to some of its privacy protecting defaults.

    I installed it after hearing about it here and use it as my main browser on my systems.

    The things that stand out that may not be pleasant for every user is:

    Sync is disabled by default. It can be toggled really easily in settings though, so it’s barely an issue.

    All browser history, cookies, etc are cleared by default on close. This can be an annoyance for many and I disabled it.

    Locked into light themes due to some vulnerability with dark ones(?). I was trying to change the theme and saw a warning that light themes are enforced.

    I’m sure there are more pro-privacy options that can be kind of an inconvenience to those not interested in digging in settings.
