I use the brave mobile browser because it blocks YouTube ads, anyone know an alternative?

No because I inherently don’t trust things that advertise. Maybe I’m weird?

Being a chromium skin is a business decision. I don't like it, but at least I understand the thought process. The crypto stuff however? No thanks. That's when I take my business elsewhere.

Not much, but for android I prefer it over Chrome.

I use Firefox but Brave is much more secure out of the box. I use Brave's search. I trust them more than Google, Bing or DuckDuckGo.

No, its a profit company, tried to add a crypto miner secretly to the browser. The privacy policy is hidden after 2 sites.
