I've been seeing a lot of people hate and uninstall Brave. Why? It's not like they're tracking us or doing anything else shady. If so, what's the privacy alternative?

Apple devices with Safari only.

Google pays Apple over 30 times what they pay Mozilla ($15 billion vs $450 million - both annually in 2021) to make the Google search engine the default in their browser.

Ooh, I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing!

That's actually quite the sum, but I guess considering Safari's reach, it makes sense.
