I main Firefox but, want a Chromium browser for Android/Windows that I can use occasionally.

What are your preferred choices?

Brave is hands down the best chromium based browser for privacy. They do a lot under the hood to block trackers and ads. I would do a little more research into ungoogled chromium. Imo it’s better to have a whole community and company backing a browser like Brave rather than a few developers basically patching source code and shipping it.

The only research I had to do was to simply open Wireshark and then Brave. Did the same with Ungoogled and lets just say Ungoogled actually delivers on their promise while Brave is simply Chrome that calls Brave servers instead of Google.
