For those who want to try something rather exotic that's not based on Chrome, go for K-Meleon.
Otherwise, when it comes to privacy and Brave's sins of the past... I think they deserve another chance. Although its built-in ad blocking can often ruin websites. I'd just suggest to disable that part and enable it just for shady websites that are unusable otherwise.

I've been using brave now on both my Mac and my Android phone. It generally works quite nicely.

Some sites don't display properly with the ad blocking on and I have to turn the blocking off to get certain pop-ups to happen properly. I generally now recognize what to do this but it was frustrating for a while when things do not appear that were supposed to.

I don't use the rewards part of brave at all. I just use it as a browser and it performs quite well aside from the problem mentioned above

I cannot find information about this. Do you have URLs?

Brave was caught cheating not once, but twice (link farming was one of them if I recall correctly).
Also, it's reliant on Chromium.
That's a double nope for me.

I tested several major browsers on mobile and it was interesting to see how bad Google Chrome and others are. I gave Brave a top grade A. I was going to post the link but appears I'm a new user here still.

Brave is a very good browser.

Always happy to see a new entrant in the browser market, but I really wish success and attention wouldn't go to one with so much controversy attached!

Although not even mentioned by Statcounter's desktop market reports, Brave is slowly but surely going up. In May, it broke its previous records with almost 79 million active users, as well as roughly 29 million daily active users. Brave Search also hit new peaks, exceeding 843 million monthly queries.
