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).*

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.

any working adBlock for YouTube?
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.

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://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.

Firefox+ublock>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.
