Conveniently excluding Vivaldi browser.

They included the biggest browsers. They don't need to include every single browser in existence.

If it's going to be about privacy, they should at least include the privacy oriented browsers even if they aren't the biggest ones out there.

And Brave too, which inconveniently beats firefox hands down in independent privacy checks. The mozilla foundation finally needs to step it up.

That heavily depends. Brave may have better advice/tracker blocking by default, but they send more telemetry. Them being an advertising company also doesn’t speak for them. Brave is a decent browser and on IOS/IPadOS a good option for open source + Adblock, but max privacy would be reconfigured Firefox or Librewolf.

Everyone's just trying to strike a balance between protecting privacy and preserving usability - it's not as simple as just enabling the strictest privacy protections, consequences be damned. Case in point: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/...

I have no idea why you were down voted. These are facts, not opinions
