ungoogled-chromium VS FullPageOS

What's the best next choice if I don't want to move away from a Chrome-like experience?

(Old habits die hard)

There's https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium - is it a sound choice nowadays?

I think you want:

Without signing in to a Google Account, Chromium does pretty well in terms of security and privacy. However, Chromium still has some dependency on Google web services and binaries. In addition, Google designed Chromium to be easy and intuitive for users, which means they compromise on transparency and control of internal operations.

ungoogled-chromium addresses these issues in the following ways:

* - Remove all remaining background requests to any web services while building and running the browser*

* - Remove all code specific to Google web services*

* - Remove all uses of pre-made binaries from the source code, and replace them with user-provided alternatives when possible.*

* - Disable features that inhibit control and transparency, and add or modify features that promote them (these changes will almost always require manual activation or enabling).*

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.

For those that like Chromium but want to remove any integration with Google, there's Ungoogled Chromium

If you're entirely partial to Chromium browsers, use Ungoogled Chrome https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium

Firefox or Ungoogled Chromium (needs to update uBlock manually) in Incognito window with unchanged vanilla uBlock Origin with lists updated and no other plugins and without YouTube account. Works perfectly. Also FreeTube.

Great! I'm looking forward to getting a few of these. I currently have five Raspberry Pis running in my house, mainly for dashboards:

* Zigbee2MQTT in a closet in the middle of the house

* FullPageOS [1] dashboard on my bedroom TV

* FullPageOS dashboard on our living room TV

* FullPageOS dashboard in my office

* RetroPie running emulators and video screensaver on a CRT TV in my workshop

FullPageOS

I came across this fullpageOS the other day. haven't tried it but thought to be useful one day.

3 Raspberry pi Zero w's with FullPageOS

I'm currently running a project using FullPageOS from github (https://github.com/guysoft/FullPageOS).

Sounds like a job for a Raspberry Pi with FullpageOS. Just create the HTML file and add JavaScript to reload it every X seconds (or have a DIV that refreshes the data every X seconds).

Or maybe you want to run something lightweight on ARM? FullPageOS is a stripped down version of armbian for the RasPi that only runs a fullscreen browser. But with tabs.
