Never heard anything bad about brave privacy, you got sources?
I think this is what has recently turned people against them: https://www.searchenginejournal.com/brave-browser-under-fire-for-alleged-sale-of-copyrighted-data/491854/#:~:text=Brave%20is%20alleged%20to%20sell,transparency%20in%20the%20tech%20industry.
They also in the past got caught using affiliate links with crypto URLs which gave brave kickbacks. Scumbag shit. If you want actual hardened browsing forget brave or anything chromium based. Use librewolf which is a forked version of Firefox. Mull if you're on F-Droid.
