bromite-buildtools VS brave-browser

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.

You'll notice the actual patching itself is introduced with the caveat:

Brave browser, which blocks ads and trackers, grew to over 50 million monthly active users in 2023 while enabling privacy-first models to counter Google's search and Chrome browser ecosystem.

Still waiting on the Brave stable release with the patched version of chromium https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/35013

Manually download the standalone version from: https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/releases/tag/v1.61.101 and update it that way.

Upgraded Chromium to 120.0.6099.71. (#34740) (Changelog for 120.0.6099.71)

For those looking for a fix: Use the latest Nightly Build for Brave.
