You'll get much of the same from Firefox with a couple extensions like uBlock Origin and Privacy Badget, without all the Brave baggage.
But their ad blocker is faster, because written in Rust. Ebuild could disable the baggage.
Hello everybody! I am also very interested in this browser and I saw that there is a PKGBUILD for it in ArchLinux, which is attached...
Created attachment 858995 [details] PKGBUILD to compile the browser from source code
I dare say we shouldn't expose our users to scam browsers, see e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/brave_browser/comments/s6haxm/one_year_with_brave_a_review_and_critique/

Thanks for the information, it was very useful! Best regards, Eduardo Coutinho Scalabrin
Yeah, I agree that we don't want Brave in Gentoo at all, for a variety of reasons: https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/8/21283769/brave-browser-affiliate-links-crypto-privacy-ceo-apology https://raymondtec.com/2019/02/facebook-twitter-trackers-whitelisted-by-brave-browser/ https://arunmozhi.in/2021/12/06/goodbye-brave/ There's an overlay with it if you really want it.

It's extremely bad. You're 100% going to run into someone who thinks Brave is a scam. Brave needs to fix this, the public image is just straight up bad. Most people don't even know it's a FOSS browser, that's a disaster. Manjaro removed Brave from their official repos because they thought it's a scam! For god's sake, Please fix your image! Advertise features that 99% of people actually care about (Hint: It's not crypto) "
