I currently use Brave and am curious about the pros and cons of both since I see many people recommend Firefox.

Brave is great out of the box experience with a lot of privacy toggles enabled by default. Firefox can be hardened a bit more, but it requires more of a user input. Both are great options, so it mostly comes down to which engine you prefer, Blink or Gecko.

Some people also choose to use Firefox for a simple reason if it not based on Chromium to avoid monopolization.

Nobody has mentioned librewolf, which is a fantastic out of the box privacy browser. It's a Firefox fork.
