Why do people switch from chrome to Brave browser and not to Firefox?

Name and shame them. Send them a complaint.
Relatedly, does anyone know if there's a public list of sites that don't work (properly or at all) in Firefox somewhere? A quick (non-Google) web search doesn't seem to turn one up. If I was working at Mozilla, that would be the kind of database I might be interested in making a public resource. And I don't mean as part of the Bug Tracker, though links between the two for legitimate problems could be useful, I guess.
Something with a very basic interface that has an offending site name, how it doesn't work, perhaps why, and what, if anything, Mozilla can do about it. In short simple sentences. One per offending site in 16pt text. And a search feature for when it runs to the hundreds.
It could be something like: [favicon/logo] example.com - Outright states that it will not support Firefox. Mozilla cannot do anything about this. Complain to Example Inc. [favicon/logo] example.net - interface is buggy in Firefox. Site misuses web standards in a way incompatible with Firefox's renderer. We are looking into this.

[favicon/logo] example.org - interface does not load. Site uses non-standard Google-only CSS properties. We are looking into this, but you could also contact The Example Organisation to ask them to review their CSS. etc.I've not had any problems with the handful of sites I use, at least not outside of something caused by browser security or add-ons which I eventually figured out how to fix.
That said, I've probably forgotten a handful I just straight up refused to visit again when they didn't work and now they're not in my regular rotation any more, so I don't notice.
