I think that the number 1 reason to not use brave is that is based on the chromium engine. The number 2 is that they use limited anti fingerprinting tools and support his self built tracking and ads. The others about ideology of the CEO i think are not so important.
Why don't you like Chromium? I'm looking for a Chrome alternative that IS based on Chromium. I have tried Firefox countless of times. Last time I used it 2 months. But chrome is just imo better, more stable, more compatible. And I'm so used to having to do calculations in the address bar and having the result without having to press enter.
Chromium is made by google. And google define with the chromium engine the web standard. Search about the deprecation of the manifest v2, and will know how the google monopoly is not a good thing as well
