How is brave ever a better alternative to Firefox. What a load of horse shit.

To be fair to the video, it presented alternative browsers for those who either aren't happy about recent Firefox changes, or users who want a secondary browser. I'm not a fan of Brave personally, but the video never really makes the claim that Brave is objectively better than Firefox

"better" is kind of implied when you suggest "alternatives".

“better” is kind of implied when you suggest “alternatives”.

Only with context, which is kind of what I was trying to say. The context was Firefox users who are not happy with its current direction, or people looking for a secondary browser. That kind of makes the only necessary criteria "Not Firefox". Everything else is the creator's opinions of which ones you "must try".

exactly, context is important when comparing firefox to brave. firefox is being held to a high ethical standard here where brave is not.
