That's pretty much the only reason I use Brave. But also fuck Apple for forcing everyone to use WebKit.
Firefox still doesn't have ergonomic pinch-to-zoom on macOS... There are experimental flags you can use to get it mostly working, but the gestures can end up triggering navigate-back or -forwards actions.
I don't use IOS (yet) so "no" on that front. I tried Brave and was happy with it until these recent revelations, so upon hearing about Braver I simply decided to keep an eye on it.
Firefox with gorhill's uBlock (search GitHub for official links, because there are imposters) is less buggy than Brave. I highly recommend it.
