I don't see any of this as legitimate reasons to stop using Brave.

yes the CEO donated $1k some 10 years ago to anti-LGBT stuff, and that's bad, but kinda small fries in the totality of factors.
ads. Firefox has ads and trackers just like Brave. You can disable them on either.
you can also disable crypto.
hijacking affiliate codes is unethical and should be stopped but don't actually affect me in any way.

What else ya got?

CEO donating to what's cause is ideology that should be separated from you assessment of the product.
