Google Chrome will limit ad blockers starting June 2024
There are a few, but I'm not sure if they're close enough for you or not: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-chrome...
Truthfully, I don't think that Firefox and Chromium look all that different, to me it seems like it's the same layout just different margins/colors/tab styles? So I'm not sure what is close enough or not.
Notably, Firefox also has userChrome.css (https://www.userchrome.org/), so if themes aren't able to get you where you want, it's possible that there's a more extensive change that someone has compiled in a user style (https://firefoxcss-store.github.io/index.html, https://github.com/muckSponge/MaterialFox might be good places to start looking, although I don't have personal experience with either source so this isn't a recommendation).

Some questions from a noob about using Linux
Not sure how about the problem with chrome, but I'd like to point out that firefox is extremely themeable, and you could definitely make it look like chrome if that's really your only problem with it. Maybe check out https://github.com/muckSponge/MaterialFox or r/FirefoxCSS

Microsoft hijacks Google's Chrome download page to beg you not to ditch Edge

Brave's AI assistant now integrates with PDFs and Google Drive
Cromite[0] is the best on Android, it's a privacy-oriented open source patchset on top of Chromium.
Cromite has a desktop build, but it's a bit more experimental than the mobile build, so you can use Ungoogled Chromium[1] instead. Ungoogled is also a privacy-oriented open source patchset on top of Chromium. Check the beta flags to enable some more interesting features like getClientRect anti-fingerprinting measures (unfortunately breaks some React-based sites that go into infinite re-render loop).
Both of these browsers selectively include patches from Brave, but they are community-oriented builds so imo more trustworthy than Brave, which continues to package various shady anti-features and always will because it's backed by a for-profit company.
LibreWolf[2] is the nicest Firefox-based one for desktop, I think. It's pretty hardcore, though, I most only use it to visit mainstream social media sites.
I tried a bunch of the Firefox-based ones on mobile and none of them clicked for me. Cromite is just too slick on Android. Put the address bar at the bottom and off you go. Only downside is no online syncing of tabs and bookmarks, but meh. You can save all open tabs to bookmark bar in one hit then export your bookmarks, send the file through whatever E2EE channel you want to your other device and import then reopen them again.

Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome
Using these sort of downstream patch set browsers is rarely a good idea. If it has multiple full-time developers from a respected org dedicated to it, then it can be justifiable (Tor Browser, Brave), but take a look at the gaps in time for these two pages:
https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/rel...
https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/c/ch...
There's often days you're going without security patches. If you want a browser without Google tracking, Firefox is a much better choice.

Installing Chrome extension from raw source code
While these screenshots use Google Chrome, they will also work on all 'Chromium' based web browsers, like Brave, Vivaldi, ungoogled-chromium, etc. Window's Edge is also compatible, though some the button locations are changed.

Brave is a fork, not a Chromium reskinn
I would highly recommend the Ungoogled Chromium fork instead: https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium
Entirely volunteer maintained, there is no for-profit entity behind it looking to do crypto referrals or ad swapping or anything like that.
