and defining "lesser" is where people disagree. Some don't care about the ceo of their tech products, they just care about the product itself. The crypto is an alternative source of funding, that some might prefer over getting funds from Google's data empire. And being based on Chrome means it supports more websites.

My point is that using brave doesn't mean they support crypto or homophobic CEOs, for many it's just their definition of the lesser of two evils

and some do, and will regard those that don't care as people who can't be bothered to advocate for the less privileged through minuscule actions.

And being based on Chrome means it supports more websites.

already gave a list of alternatives that use the chromium engine in this thread.

Again, welcome to have that opinion. Doesn't change the fact that other people are impacted by an individual's decision and they will base their judgements of the individual on those impacts.

Every decision has an impact. Google's data empire impacts the less privileged too. So yeah, other people are impacted by people's decision to use Firefox, and they can judge those individuals based on those impacts.
