Just because Brave comes out as "the best" on privacy tests doesn't mean it's worth it to support a commercial browser that pushes AI, cryptocurrencies, that blocks ads while replacing them with their own locked behind their system that they get a cut from, that added their referral links to websites you visited and only removed them after severe backlash, whose CEO is a notorious homophobe that donated 1000$ to a campaign aiming to ban gay marriage rights in California. Zorin might claim they chose it based on merit and remove a lot of these features from it but they still push people to use it and increase its market share.

Most browsers push AI, I've never touched their crypto stuff in years of use, so easy to toggle off. Honestly I like the concept of what they tried to do with ads and crypto. It's a model that atleast pays back the user, al other ads are just leeching off your data without giving anything back.

Yah okay that last one I can't defend 🙄. CEO's certainly should shut their mouths more nowadays
