Not if those friends care about having their data sold to advertisers.
Except companies have learned the meta, and now a bunch of search queries for Reddit are filled with ads on Reddit. (not to mention you have to use google to get their results now.)
If you turn off the telemetry like I said in my comment that no longer becomes an issue. In terms of blocking your digital fingerprint Brave is going to be better than every popular Chromium based browser. See the link I posted in the original comment.
Issue with this argument is that if you are found to have hacked their servers and stolen an API key you bet your ass theyre suing you for stealing their property. Their argument is "laws for thee not for me". I agree with you if we are only talking about copyright law.
If you want Something you can set up and forget, use YUNOHOST, otherwise learn how to use docker containers and pick any server distro. Debian, Fedora Server, Ubuntu Server, MicroOS, hell OpenWrt will all do fine.
Theres an extension you can manually install that will automatically install extensions now. its pretty cool
If I were you and needed to use a chromium based browser, I would go for brave with maximum privacy settings turned on and all the Crypto shit and brave "features" turned off. Ungoogled chromium is a good project but its not as refined as Brave is. See here: https://privacytests.org/
If I were you I'd go for Librewolf or Mullvad browser if you dont need Chromium. The reason people say this is because Google has a sort of monopoly on the browser space right now as Chromium takes up Almost 80% of the marketshare, meaning that Google will ultimately get to decide what features live, and what features die. If Chromium market share was down at 40% or so, it wouldnt matter if you used Brave or not, but thats the reality we live in.

I wish. no in school suspension
The point was not the amount of money they are making, the point is that regardless you are being sold for profit. Any platform that is ad-driven should be avoided if you want any form of privacy.
