Brave being listed alongside Firefox

Bestie Brave is literally just Chromium again. Not to mention the fact that their CEO is someone who got ousted from Firefox for being a tremendous bigot. It's not a better alternative to Chrome, it's just the same thing again. It you must use a chromium browser, use ungoogled.

I personally use Librewolf. Its just a hardened version of Firefox so you don't have to do it yourself.

I tried it but didn't care to find out if there was a way to stop it from deleting all my tabs and logins, and I'm not relogging into everything just because I needed to close my browser.

You can set exceptions to the cookie deletion in the security settings. I personally have everything I use frequently (invidious and stuff) to keep the login cookies. Or you can just completely disable that feature.
