Lets look at these options.

Vivaldi and Chrome are both closed source, so no one who cares about their digital sovereignty should ever consider them when there are so many other options available.

In a vacuum, Brave is an ok browser, but it is still based on Chromium (Just like Chrome and Vivaldi) which is not good for your privacy/security. Because of Manifest v3, you are limited in what ad blocking you can use/do. Also, Brave's leadership is extremely problematic, their CEO, Brenden Eich, is a genuine bigot.

Of the four options listed, Firefox is the only decent option, but even then it is not the best option for Firefox based browsers. There are so many excellent forks, like Librewolf, Zen, Waterfox, and Mullvad, that will respect your privacy and freedom.

LOL, I came here to say exactly that. I think this website is pretending to care about FOSS while actually just looking for some clicks.

@kdkorte @Kdude @rustbuckett @itsfoss And that chain/domino effect is something average users don't seem to understand or don't want to understand. You can't protect people from themselves.
