It was also much smoother

now that's just rose-tinted glasses speaking. I remember how absolutely abysmal old Firefox' scrolling was, and how they've claimed multiple times that they've improved it but it was still horribly sluggish compared to Chromium browsers. I've been using Firefox Preview (and then Nightly after enough performance improvements have landed on it) for about a year just to have acceptable experience on mobile.

Some have pointed at Kape’s history. The company had previously operated under the name Crossrider and was active in the advertising space. Among other things, it installed toolbars with ‘potentially unwanted software.’ While the company has since switched to a focus on cybersecurity, this past has made some people suspicious.

extensions

you mean how Brave doesn't let you install any on mobile, while Firefox does?
