As a reminder, Brave was created by the guy who brought you JavaScript and was later fired from Mozilla for donating to hate groups. Brave also profits from multiple forms of fraud including NFTs and affiliate hijacking.
If folk want to have a chromium-based browser made by a company, take a look at Vivaldi instead ~~(which will keep the old plugin architecture, so adblockers work)~~. It has a limited built-in blocker and extra features, but for now still runs uBlock.
Vivaldi is what I use, and it's absolutely the best Chromium browser I've ever tried.
That said, I'd switch to Firefox in a heartbeat if it could duplicate that sidebar. I use that thing all the time, and it's the only thing keeping me on Chromium.

Firefox fork with features like the sidebar, vertical tabs, and more. It's a vivaldi-like gecko browser, give it a shot.
Oh, man, that's exactly what I've been wanting. Already switched!
I just switched to floorp from firefox, it's so nice to finally have another choice for a non-chromium browser with a reasonable number of plugins
There's something really funny about that sentence. I think it's because it reminds me of "remember Akira? That's from Japan."
