Brave browser is the best solution I’ve found for my mobile workflow. Doesn’t help when the app opens the website link using the native in app browser, though.
No, the scandal they got caught up in was basically if you typed “Coinbase” into the search bar it would suggest the autocomplete response for their affiliate link to Coinbase, it wasn’t limited to just coinbase however, and it wasn’t a forced redirect, just didn’t pass the sniff test, and while that doesn’t mean it’s bad or malicious, that also doesn’t necessarily mean it’s good.
It just happens to be the best solo solution on the application layer that works well with other complimentary services on other layers to fit my good enough criteria for now based on the hardware I currently have available to me.
When I get a different phone (read as migrated off of Apple [current] and Google [past] phone OS’s) I will reevaluate my mobile opsec and most likely chose from the other solutions available on the platform of my choice.
Firefox mobile with ublock origin. It’s like a condom of the internet.
i prefer a privat dns like adguard. works in app and games too

Something that brave has, and Firefox doesn’t, is the ability to block javascript.

On Android, apps use your default browser: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/android/custom-tabs/
Same here with Vivaldi.
I use Firefox (i.e. not Chromium) with UBlock Origin on mobile, no issues. Also has a reader mode.
Wasn’t Brave caught mining crypto on users’ machines?
