Vanadium VS bromite-buildtools

While Graphene comes with Vanadium, their own Chromium-based browser, pre-installed I chose to go with Mull as my default browser. There wasn't anything wrong with Vanadium, it's just that I've been using Firefox (and the wonderful uBlock Origin plugin) on my Linux machine for a little while now and have really grown to prefer it to Chromium-based browsers. In my research I had seen a lot of mentions of Mull and Fennec, both based on Firefox but with further hardening and privacy modifications. This detailed browser comparison chart (produced by the developer of Mull) is what ultimately led to me choosing Mull. It's definitely worth a look at the chart even if you aren't in the market for a new browser!

Check out Vanadium, which is part of the GrapheneOS project: https://github.com/GrapheneOS/Vanadium

If you're looking for a Bromite successor, right now best way is to download the uazo builds direct from GitHub: https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools There are some third party tools that will download the releases for you, but I'm fine to just manually pop by the repo whenever ungoogled-chromium[0] updates on my desktop.

Personally I use this Chromium build. Being developed by one of the guys who worked on Bromite. With all its features.

Hmm, Thorium should be fine, at the very least? Its very close to vanilla Chromium/Google Chrome, with nothing that should mess up rendering.

There are also experimental builds of Bromite (another Chrome fork that is very close to Chromium, but with a light built-in adblocker.)

Many Bromite users now are moving to this. https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools These builds are built by uazo, the primary contributor to Bromite other than Carl, the original developer

One of the Devs of Bromite has made a Chromium browser with all of Bromites features. Updated regularly as well. You can get it from here

Bromite via either its site/Fdroid, GitHub or Woolyss site has a bottom bar available in accessibility settings. (The first one has been unmaintained for a while, but has auto updates available if they ever drop. The other two are up to date but must be updated manually.)

Mull is my recommendation. If its too strict for you or breaks things, Fennec F-Droid is great too. If you need Chromium, Brave is probably the best option at the moment. You could also try uazo's build of Bromite, which is basically just a version of Bromite created by one of Bromite's developers, except up to date and with some tweaks/enhancements, though it is in beta so it could be buggy and not as refined.
