Honestly, I'm with Brave just for easy of use and out-of-box usability. I did modify built-in settings though.

  • No account, I can sync my bookmarks even between mobile and desktop.
  • Built-in security/ad blocking, no extra plugins and permissions.

I will probably give Firefox a try in the future but a few years back it was so bloated and I hate having to install things from 3rd parties I feel should be included.
