Our new officially-supported repository allows users of the F-Droid client to install the browser and receive automatic updates without requiring Google Play.
I gave Brave a try back in the early days. The Brave wallet was useless and something I didn’t wanted. There wasn’t much to differentiate it from Chrome back then on desktop. On mobile, it has built in Adblock but that’s it. Vivaldi, IMO, bundles in more features for a Chromium based browser.
Either case, I have been on Firefox for multiple years now despite it’s own issues. uBlock Origin is properly supported on it (both desktop and mobile). I think FF(nightly version or Iceraven, a FF fork) is the only browser that allows sideloading of extensions on mobile. Chromium based browsers are way behind in this regard.

I setup brave on my relative’s iOS device because it has anti-tracking builtin. But would welcome suggestions of iOS browsers that preserve privacy.
If Apple didn’t effectively prevent browser extensions I would setup Firefox with privacy badger, and uBlock origin with an anti-malware list.
