I guess my point was that adding uBlock Origin to Vivaldi is a simple 5 second process, so the claim that it is unsuitable as a replacement for Brave because the default ad/tracker blocker is less effective seems kind of pointless.
By default, sure. But uBlock is way more powerful when you configure it.
Seriously, take a look at their wiki. I doubt that Brave lets you choose exactly which domains to connect to on a per-site basis.
And do you really want an advertising company to make your adblocker? They’ve done shadier stuff.
Their point is to be an ethical ad company. So i still kinda trust them. Also, I use Firefox + uBlock Origin on Hard Mode both on PC and Android. Brave has really good, balanced ad blocker which does not break sites but block ads and trackers.
Vivaldi has way worse adblock compared to Brave. Not a replacement.
Brave’s ad-blocker is better than uBlock Origin?
There are some places where yes. Brave has VERY good, balanced ad blocker built-in.

Why wouldn’t you just install uBlock Origin on them though?
