I currently use Brave and am curious about the pros and cons of both since I see many people recommend Firefox.

Firefox is a little more complicated than that. Yes, the Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit, however it's subsidiary the Mozilla Corporation is not. It's better than Google but like all things, it's worth asking where the money comes from.

True. OP looked like s/he wanted a simple answer so I just went with the basics, especially as there's not a noticeable difference in basic browsing performance between the two in their current form (although I think FF is slightly faster right now).
