I don't see any of this as legitimate reasons to stop using Brave.

• yes the CEO donated $1k some 10 years ago to anti-LGBT stuff, and that's bad, but kinda small fries in the totality of factors.

• ads. Firefox has ads and trackers just like Brave. You can disable them on either.

• you can also disable crypto.

• hijacking affiliate codes is unethical and should be stopped but don't actually affect me in any way.

What else ya got?

Common folks you are supposed to use a Computer only to assist at your job.

If your going to use a chromium browser brave isn't the worst choice
