Brave does not need ublock origin, and brave adblock is independent of manifest v2/3.
They implement compatible features in the browser itself.

Can you create your own filters, or subscribe to filter lists with Brave's ad blocker? If not then it's in no way a replacement for uBlock.
No fan of Brave here, but you can, yeah.
Are you sure? I just installed it on Android and can't find anything about lists in the settings.
Tried searching and I can't find anything about subscribing to lists on desktop either, only a few discussions about the default set of lists they use.
Assuming it's the same as on desktop, go to settings->shields->content filters. They have a bunch of default filter lists you can subscribe to or you can add your own. You can also create your own custom filter rules. You can also do it semi-automatically by right clicking (no idea the equivalent on mobile) on an element in a page and there will be a "Block Elements" option that does a pretty decent job of wildcard blocking the element group you selected, and can be configured pretty easily with the popup.
Oh it works! That's great, thank you.
Settings -> Brave Shields and privacy -> Content Filtering.
I'm gonna be honest with you, the giant orange un-hideable brave logo might be the biggest reason I don't use Brave. It's like I can feel it burning into my phone's OLED.
Lol, understandable.
I actually like kiwi browser quite a lot on mobile. Extensions, Devtools(!!!) make it especially great. Try that if you want (it's on top of chromium android).
I use brave most of the time though, because I use their sync service across all my devices.
With Brave you can enable manifest v2 ublock origin if you prefer anyway.
