“My long goodbye to Windows XP” (2022)
Hey, Congratulations on your upgrade to Windows 7!
Not 48 hours ago, I spoke highly of the benefits of Windows 7[1], as a user myself.
It is absolutely possible to use Windows 7 reasonably securely, if you take the appropriate precautions(again, see my comment)
> I can use the latest versions of Google Chrome
Firefox? Yes. Chrome? No.
Chromium 109 is the last version to support Windows 7. Here's the last working ungoogled variant [2].
Switch to LibreWolf[3] Firefox based browser with user.js modifications[3] pre-installed. Or if you don't trust librewolf, use Firefox and manually add the same user.js[4]
It's better for security than Chrome could ever hope to be.
Your web browser's javascript continue to be the predominant way for malware to make its entry. So just make sure to take the appropriate security precautions, as mentioned in my comment [1].
> When Firefox stopped receiving upgrades I switched to Mypal browser, an open source browser specially made for Windows XP. It is cruder than Google Chrome but does the job most of the time.
Have you tried K-Meleon on Windows XP[5]? It's Old Firefox(pre-Australis) based, and still gets updates.
Windows 7 is the last legit good Microsoft Operating System.
It truly is a wonder and a delight to use and modify.
Anyway, all the very best on your Windows 7 journey. May it serve you well.
Cheers!

ungoogled chromium harderning
I have been directly affected by it. It turns out the binaries distributed via winget on windows come from an apparently reliable source (https://github.com/macchrome/winchrome/releases) that has even changed some browser features. I found it out when I saw a button saying 'black' instead of 'back' on a 'confirm form resubmission' dialog box. I dug deeper and reproduced it with the help of a UG dev.

I miss the days of Google Chrome being the browser for minimalists. It seems every release adds another icon we can't get rid of.
I'm using Windows version, but there's also Linux version in another repo. https://github.com/macchrome/winchrome/releases/tag/v102.0.5005.63-6-r992738-Win64

The confusing CalyxOS-supplied Chromium
Our goal with the Chromium provided in CalyxOS has been to provide a browser with a solid base of privacy and security enhancements vs Chromium (and by extension, vs Chrome) while still allowing most sites and WebView-based apps to function as expected out of the box. We do this by using select changes from Cromite (and prior to that, Bromite). Some of these include the under-the-hood deactivation of intrusive features and analytics, while others provide additional site settings to adjust features like WebGL and WebRTC, features which are sometimes necessary but which can aid in fingerprinting or identification when turned on. We also bring in the legacy ad blocker from Bromite/Cromite to offer some reasonable protection from the worst kinds of ads. You can find and adjust these features in Settings.

Nexus 7 Flox: flo-deb_clamor_repartition_20201203.zip unavailable
Normally, I'd recommend Bromite as a lightweight Chromium-based browser with built-in adblocking, but the project appears to be asleep right now. It might be worth checking it in a few weeks, though.

Alternative to Samsung Internet - Android browser with bottom back & forward buttons (not hidden)
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.)
