I started using Firefox Android a year ago and now I can't stand chrome and all the Ads!

Ublock origin on Firefox mobile is a godsend.

Add on dark reader and the mobile experience is dramatically better. It's still a little clunky from a UI/UX standpoint, but still superior experience overall.

I'd describe the mobile UX as less optimized and more straightforward than Chrome. Definitely easier to tweak your privacy settings as well.

I find that firefox + ublock is still far slower than brave on android.

It isn't slower for me, and Firefox + uBlock Origin have the benefits of being FOSS (no for-profit making decisions behind the scenes) and having much better control over blocking.

Brave sometimes totally fails to block Outbrain-like junk at the bottom of articles, and that seems like it must be intentional.
