Why not Brave? I mean... Firefox is fine, just, some of the extensions I need for example are not available on it.

Even Brave uses Chromium as a launching point before all of its customizations.

This in turn gives Google control over web standards because if they choose not to support something or if they implement it in a particular way they effectively govern it's adoption because of their near universal market share.

I'm sure I missed a lot of nuance but this is my best take at explaining it.
