I guess brave had some tweaks on browser engine apart from that, yeah.
One thing worth mentioning is that in android browser is usually contained in the app so when you install different copies of different versions maybe installed. But on iPhone, you are using the browser built in to the system as backend
Yeah - the tweaks can be substantial and they have the flexibility to do more. Brave has a whole development pipeline for incoming Chromium changes so they can intentionally bring in code they want and avoid bringing in code they don’t want, like FLoC, or changes that would conflict with their own tweaks. But I don’t think many other browsers change a ton in the engine itself, so you effectively end up with them getting as much customization of Chrome, Firefox, or maybe of Safari (mostly of Chrome) as Apple allows browsers on its platform.
Having older versions isn’t generally an advantage, unless you’re trying to test for compatibility or something similar. It means you’re more vulnerable to known threats that have been patched in current versions of browsers
In the same way that someone using Edge, Brave, or any other Chromium based browser anywhere else is using Chrome, yes.
