Should i keep using Brave or Firefox?

Hello, i just created this account since i've had this question in my mind for a long time. Mainly because i have an issue with browserhopping between Brave and Mozilla Firefox. I really enjoyed using Firefox but i had a lot of issues with it starting with it sometimes freezing and stuttering, but also sometimes i would need to reapply the user.js file for my hardened firefox setup everytime a new update happens, but also if you use any css themes like Materialfox updated it can break especially i discovered now on my school laptop where i had Firefox installed and when it updated it broke my theme. On mobile i find it annoying that Firefox on Android is less secure and private but also less customizable comparing to Firefox on Desktop and even if i could use something like WebLibre which is Gecko based or Ironfox i find no difference as i find the UI very not comfortable to use even before the UI update. I could switch to Brave which fixes most of my issues but i just don't stand the bloat that you can't disable with exception being Leo AI, but also some controversies surrounding by the CEO and the browser itself yet i find Brave the most comfortable to use especially on Android. I could use Helium but that browser lacks a lot of features i need and there aren't any good Chromium based browsers on Google Play Store unless you download F-Droid which i hate the fact on either August/September Google is gonna get rid of sideloading. So should i keep using Brave or move to Firefox?
