I am in this path too, but not for everyone. The Firefox (and variants) in Android is ok for normal browsing but would not log into highly sensitive sites nor is recommendable for many users that are not careful with settings and updates. Brave (and others privacy friendly ones), with its flaws, it is better in that arena, so recommended for them.
Also, we may not like it, but if we criticize company attempts to become financial viable, we are doing at disservice to our FOSS community. We should just point what you don't like from Brave and let our audiences decide for themselves.
use Fennec for normal browning and Tor Browser for anything of such sensitivity
I am now with IronFox, I forgot the reason I left Fennec. Does anyone know the advantage of one vs the other?
If you can't be financially viable without scamming people maybe fuck off??
