Right now, my default is Cromite, and I occasionally use Brave as well. I have tried Firefox with uBO, but unfortunately it is slower than the aforementioned browsers and also lacks some features. I've also heard that Gecko-based browsers in general have a security issue on Android, but I don't know the details. Which browser(s) do you use/recommend and why?

The differences of speed between current browsers are minimal, it's more the question how fast you can work with it for your daily tasks, the handling and features it has. Start and page loading time depends more on other than on the browser (bandwidth, memory of the device, weight of the page you visit,....)
