    maintaining a custom fork of a very active software project is very hard bcz google maintains chromium and they don’t have to ask anyone if they want to add or remove something from their project but if you are a maintainer of a fork who adds more features and don’t upstream your changes(in brave case google will not accept pull request from them for the feature they already remove like Manifest V3) maintaining the patches and constantly porting them to the newer version is a pain in the ass and imagine yourself working against large team of google engineers, they get paid to do this but not lots of people have resources to keep fixing all the PRs from Google devs which they make to break the adblockers to maximize Google profits.

    its far better to use a browser which was made from ground up to support user privacy and features rather then patching a browser which was made to compromises their user privacy
