Add cromite (the main bromite fork) which is on Windows and Android, and Mull by DivestOS (like arkenfox for Android). If you want to make a mobile section I would recommend Mull, Cromite, Fenix (fdroid). The thing with privacy browsers is they differ from security centric browsers. Vandium and Mulch are chromium security browsers for Graphene and Divest respectively, Cromite is a privacy chromium browser with good security as well. Ungoogled is designed as a drop in replacement for vanilla Chromium, and has custom flags for hardenning that must be enabled manually.

Will Cromite be able to keep blocking ads when Manivest v3 roll out? I currently refuse to use Chromium browsers and I am trying to run Mull on my newly acquired Pixel with Graphene, but I've been having a few issues with it (constant crashes and such). I am aware the Graphene team doesn't recommend Gecko based browsers but Vanadium is a nono for me since there's no ad blocking on it so I am really struggling on which mobile browser to use.

Iirc Manifest v3 effect extensions. Chromium mobile doesnt support extensions in the first place (except kiwi which isnt great for privacy). Cromite uses imported blocklists in the settings and therefore should be alright.

Isnt chromite obsolete?

EDIT: Nevermind...

[–] UprisingVoltage@feddit.it 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That one's bromite, which is discontinued. Cromite is the successor to that project
