Because it’s the best browser out of the box. It has pretty good default settings, good anti-tracking features (see https://privacytests.org) and doesn’t need any extension installed. Every shitty feature (Reward, Wallet) can be disabled. Brave also has a clear business model, which is not based on user data.
LibreWolf, another fantastic browser, is a better choice when it comes to privacy, but lacks the security features that Brave inherits from Chromium and can’t auto-update unless you’re using a package manager. So it’s pretty much pick your poison.
The marketing and advertising arguments come from people with heavy biases. Mentioning Qtbrowser is a joke, and Ungoogled Chromium does nothing special to protect your privacy (and has CRLSets disabled for whatever reason, while Brave proxies them)
PD: don’t use the Tor feature on Brave, stick with the Tor Browser
WTF does out of the box even mean, Brave is filled with crypto junk. Douglas Leith’s paper results are so often manipulated like this, when you can simply install uBlock Origin in Firefox and it is miles ahead of anything.
There are too many Brave shills and marketing, and almost all “privacy” YouTubers shill Brave.
When you write a spaghetti thesis about twisting Leith’s paper to claim Brave is so great, it is you who is not just writing not valuable stuff, but writing harmful stuff.

See the biases there?
Sure, stay away from that “junk” bro.
Anyway:
I mentioned LibreWolf.
There’s nothing valuable on your post.
