Chrome now directly tracks users, generates a "topic" list it shares with advertisers.

        I have a chromium install lying around for that. Bizarrely the online conferencing tool my bank uses has issues with Firefox despite advertising Firefox support which is pretty much the only thing I need the Chromium browser for

          Rather, use un-googled chromium. Brave is kind of bloated with all of the extra “features” they have.

            Where can I download it from ? Can you please share the link for windows? . Ungoogled chromium for android is not maintained anymore.

              Windows links are here. As for android, you’re right, it is not maintained anymore; the most similar still-maintained browser I could find is Cromite, but I’ve never used it before so I can’t comment on it.

                Chromite is quite good its the successor of bromite and has increased adblock functionality I’ve used it for a little bit and it is quite nice.
