No, but you better ditch brave and set up Firefox. They did some shady shit in the past and tried to deny or cover it up.

- Librewolf is probably a safer choice.

Depends on what block lists you use and how aggressive you want the filtering to be. I've been using Brave for a while and tested it with and without uBO. With Brave Shield set to aggressive blocking (what I higly recommend) it blocked about 99,5 of all the stuff uBO would block.
