Careful. Trying to sell Brave as a homophobe web browser won't hurt it like you guys think.

    Persistent and unavoidable ads are the reason I don’t use original Firefox

    Why are you not using uBlock Origin?

    Firefox does have ads on by default for the startpage, but they can be turned off in the settings in a fairly easy and obvious way. So even as obnoxious and demoralising ads, I don't think it is fair to say these ones are "persistent and unavoidable". (It's not easy to remove the Firefox logo from the new tab page, and that annoys me, but I wouldn't call it an ad.)
