I love Brave and use the Sidewise extension to mimic TST. [1]
It isn't perfect though. My main issues are that it's a separate window so sometimes clicking on the side window or the main window draws focus instead of clicking the thing under my cursor. Also the search bar in the sidebar keeps getting accidentally activated when I hit command-T. So I ended up inspecting and deleting the element. It's not the most elegant solution, but it works well enough.
I've tried FF a couple times a year ever since Quantum came out, but on my MBP it's just much slower than Brave.
I stay with Firefox for a lot of reasons, but the main one is this - I am so used to TreeStyleTabs I can't imagine going with anything else. Do any other browsers support something similar?
Opera has tree tabs extension (which I'm using for a long time, but only for really threaded sessions), chrome idk. Not sure how much different it is, but the basic functionality you'd expect from tree editor is there.
What advantages does brave have other than their weird ad replacement thing? I’ve weirdly moved to Microsoft edge from Firefox for something’s recently. Unfortunately the chrome developer tools are awful.

You are literally the first person I've ever heard say this. I've heard a ton of people say they want to switch to Firefox, but can't leave the Chrome dev tools behind. Mind telling us why you find Firefox dev tools superior?
Chromium browser which still generally has a performance edge, but without some types of Google's tracking like the browser level sign in or the recent example of Google exempting themselves from clear cookies.
But is that performance difference actually important? I can accept a minor impact as a tradeoff to support a more diverse ecosystem and weaken the Google monolith just a little.
I use both quite a bit and do not notice any difference in performance. You may be able to tell via benchmarks, but real-world performance is very similar.
