If you like Chrome but don't care about numerous Google's trackers sending data of your browsing habits, get Chromium instead. There's a simple self-updating, open source launcher on Github. Grab the latest release. Used that for years.

There is Chrlauncher with support for ungoogled-chromium.
Is there any bare-bones browsers that respect privacy like Brave but without cryptocrap? I want good extension support and speed too. Good UI would be a good thing.

Use Chromium with uBlock Origin for ad blocking and Chlauncher for auto-updates.

It’s a bad bargain. Google as evil as Microsoft in terms of privacy. Better switch to Chromium with chrlauncher or Brave.

You could use ungoogled chromium or iridium browser, browsers less knowledged (they don't need youtubers to be adversited), and works good, plus ungoogled chromium is literally chrome without google, and iridium is brave but without all their crypto bullshit and lies.

Just wanted to share the video about why Firefox is important for open web and why you should use Firefox based browser instead of Chromium.

You mean like Iron, Epic, or Iridium? Privacy focused chromium has been around almost as long as chromium has.

Anyone have any feedback about the iridium browser? Seems kinda similar to Brave but without the crypto nonsense. Haven't really tried it yet though.
