Cromite a Bromite fork with ad blocking and privacy enhancements; take back your browser! - uazo/cromite

Since it looks like Firefox might not be a good option for the long haul due to some disappointing decisions from its management, I’m on the lookout for privacy-friendly alternatives. I came across Cromite, which is based on Chromium and has an ad blocker. Has anyone tried it? From what I’ve seen, the built-in ad blocker seems pretty basic and not very customizable. Still, I think any alternative we choose should be based on Chromium, especially if we don’t want to wait ages for Ladybird.

    I use it every day and I never had problems with it. It’s pretty OK.but I would like to have something more powerful like Unlock Origin which is available on Firefox for android but the performance is not that good and I didn’t like how it worked

          It is an important hardening feature, but the browser isn’t completely insecure without it assuming it is up-to-date and that you aren’t on the receiving end of targeted/zero-day attacks. Furthermore (in Chromium) with isolated renderer processes there is still some inherent attack surface of the main process that can allow a single exploit, just like in Firefox.
