Firefox with its default settings is both less private and less secure than Brave. On iOS, Firefox has refused for years to implement an adblocker.
It’s best to say nothing if you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Blame Apple.
These days ads are an attack vector. I’d never let my parents browse the web without a blocker.
Blame Mozilla. Most iOS browsers have built-in adblocking.
But aside from that recent exception, no one ever had anything except Safari on iOS, even if they thought otherwise.
You should really do your research.
You haven't been blocking them, because iOS with Safari didn't allow that.
Hiding, and blocking, are not the same thing. The former is far less secure than the latter.
As for blocking ads on iOS with Brave, well, it really doesn't work that well[0]. Why? Because iOS doesn't let you block ads, unless you are in the EU and on 17.4 or later.
You should exit the RDF and really do at least a bare minimum of research.

You really should read links you post.
Brave even has an option where you can choose to do:
- “aggressive” blocking (will refuse to connect to ad domains)
-“standard” blocking (will connect but block, to prevent breakage)
I will stop responding now because I’ve corrected you multiple times and you refuse to listen.
You're being fooled by marketing.
Just because Brave calls it blocking, doesn't mean it is blocking.
Again, just do some god-damn research. Really, the bare minimum. It isn't news to anyone educated on this stuff that Apple has never* allowed proper ad blocking until recently in the EU.
But, believe whatever you want. I get being too scared to leave that ever so comfy RDF you found yourself in.
Well, I tried.
I also don't like to go with the flock...
and... how cares about the defaults? You have the options you should care to configure things for yourself. if you don't know how you should search and instruct yourself to do it.
About iOS... Have you even considered that Apple has forced their rendering engine ( https://gprivate.com/6btxx ) and that alone makes it impossible to have an adblocker - yeah... apple is THAT great!!! (in fact, their products are the best of the best. You should keep using them...)
but then again... i don't know what i'm talking about, do I!!!
(also... you should learn how to be polite to others!!!)
Given that, telling you to be quiet is about as polite as it gets.
