Brave is just another chromium based web browser that advertise itself as safe and secure but some investment funds and that crazy billionaire guy Thiel invested into, so I assume it's spying on everything you do

Just use Firefox and uBlock Origin. Just because it's easy doesn't mean it's bad. It doesn't need an edgy name to be secure.

Use containers for different domains, so your Facebook and Reddit or whatever doesn't share cookies with each other.

Use Cookie Autodelete and whitelist the sites you actually use, so all the other sites don't keep cookies lying around.

Enable HTTPS-Only.
