If you are on Android, you can try Cromite (a beta app by dev of Bromite). The app has less bloat compared to Brave.
Though the app needs some ironing as it has some missing/broken stuff.

Why has no one forked brave yet?
There's no point in it. Brave is just Chromium with their customizations

That 1k donation, from years ago, is very usefull to someone. I dont know who cares so much to destroy this Brave founder, but that story for a 1k donation keep being repeated over and over.
Some people gave millions to have trans right banned.. we never hear about thoses people. But 1k, big deal!
It's not about the amount, it's about doing it in the first place and even more so defending that action afterwards but whatever...
Unsubstantiated whataboutism. Cool (not actually cool).

I think we have far bigger problems than Brendan Eich in the tech industry. Far more people have suffered or died in recent years from tax cuts and austerity lobbied by by some of the biggest billionaires (i.e. Zuckerberg, Gates, Ballmer, Musk, Bezos) than from the causes Eich has funded.
Can we truly call ourselves humanitarians when we continue to lap up everything that big tech gives to us?
At best, we're hypocrites for cancelling Eich whilst simultaneously sweeping issues like worker exploitation, political/medical disinformation, erosion of privacy, etc from the rest of big tech under the rug.

Just gonna leave this here... https://privacytests.org/
Edit: After reading the article I'm sceptical about a bias as the writer clearly misrepresented the lawsuit against Gawker by Hulk Hogan, which in turn puts the whole article into question.
Not saying that the allegations against Brave aren't true, I'm just saying I wouldn't trust a journalist who misrepresents the truth to tell me the truth.
