Maybe Cromite (the main bromite fork) would be better. Vivaldi isn’t great, but it also isn’t brave. It allows for blocklist importing and user scripts, and is on desktop Windows as well.
What is unprivate about brave software? Assuming all telemetry is turned off and the browser is configured for strictest of settings no crypto, no ads, no telemetry, no java, session cookie delete, ect ect. Do we have RCP happening phoning home? I have never set brave up behind traffic analysis to see what outbound traffic gets sent that was not from the user. This can be directed towards desktop and mobile.
Besides the above the only off putting thing I’m aware they have done is installed their VPN software without permission on dekstop which I found myself before I seen the news about it.
Edit wording.
Unless you stop using Firefox Account or Vivaldi Account, which are both real spy tools, not telemetry, which is indeed harmless and hellpfull not only to devs, but to yourself (to make browser better), Brave accountless sync will always 100% better solution in terms of privacy and security.
