Routine: Back up Bookmarks manually, and save those bookmarks as a .html file to some external storage.

Use a good password wallet. Routine: Back up your password wallet ("pw") data, and save that data to some external storage. BB has a built-in password function, but users fail to respect their need to maintain backup.

Ad-Blocking

AdBlock filter developers and Brave Browser have a working relationship. I am uncertain about what would be an exact formal relationship, if any, between AdBlock Plus and BB.
