As someone who uses brave, is Firefox the better alternative? I'm pretty out of the loop on this one.

But it isn't because of the icon lol

Brave is neat technology undermined by a predatory company that constantly attempts to sneak things past their users and falls back on "oops, didn't mean to" when caught.

* Using YouTubers' likenesses in ads saying "donate to so-and-so" when Brave is collecting the money. Even for YouTubers who are critical of Brave.
* Inserting affiliate links into users' typed URLs to skim money off of regular usage. 

Not to mention DNS leaks in their Tor implementation and the fact that you can't use ad-free Brave without turning off ads in half a dozen places, including sponsored images in the new tab page.

At its core, Brave is a racket: cut out a site's actual ads in order to collect money on their behalf and give them back a portion if they play ball. 

A chromium based browser with the backing of a large privacy focused company is a useful option. But Brave isn't that company.
