Chromium has very little to do with whether a browser shares user data - it's just an open-source package for making browsers.

I also primarily use Firefox, but Brave is definitely a more serious effort at a privacy-focused browser.

I never really understood brave. It's basically chromium with some google tracking removed and with some inbuilt "extension".

You get the same with firefox plus ublock origin, while supporting a more open web by not using the monopolistic chrome engine. Also, I doubt brave could fork the project for a long period after the adblocking becomes impossible with chromium

I never used Brave myself. The problem I see with Brave is is their business model being counterproductive for the web. If I understood correct, they block ads placed by the the content creators, just to replace them with their own monetization model... doesn't seem fair to me.
