So far, as far as I can tell, for desktop, yes.

Brave plus privacy badger seems to be the strongest anti-fingerprint that you can lay your hands on at the moment.

I have waded waist deep through about 15 anti-Brave posts where people have told me to try different combinations of plugins and browsers. Somebody claimed duckduckgo would do it, but once I installed it and found out it didn’t support plugins, I walked away immediately.

Everybody seems to direct most of their hate toward the CEO and the crypto. As far as I’m concerned those two things don’t bother me anywhere near as much as their thirst for funding. I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t have any qualms about selling 100% of my data off to anyone willing to pay to stay afloat. But in the end that’s probably not all that different from Microsoft or Google.

Brave is keeping up with the Joneses for YouTube ad blocking. It’s reasonably quick and supports all of my Chrome plugins.

I absolutely cannot get Firefox to pass the fingerprint test. If I could convince Firefox to pass that test I would strongly consider backing off my usage of brave.
