Kinda like IceCat, which hasn't been updated since June 2019. Privacy on the interweb would be nice but it's almost impossible so I would always prioritise security because the browser is the single biggest vulnerability in the entire system for most desktop "Privacy might be better than Chrome but security for those browsers is a complete joke."Īh, good point, I never thought of that. Privacy might be better than Chrome but security for those browsers is a complete joke (IMO). Not good.īut for the "un-Googled" versions you list the situation is even worse because they're all based on outdated versions of Chrome. So the chromium package is outdated and riddled with potential security holes. Google don't provide an LTS version (unlike Mozilla) and Debian just can't keep up with the steady stream of vulnerabilities:

But I do agree that the chomium package in the repositories is in a pretty poor state. Why, that would be the data-mining Chrome, of course! Google has been caught many times stealing data from K-12 students in violation of federal law and each time it promises to never do it again.ĭebian does not supply Chrome, and they never will. Mirror mirror on the wall, of all the Debian-supplied browsers, which is the shittiest of them all?

So if you want a non-Tor privacy browser, add the brave repo and install brave and set your anti-fingerprinting setting to "strict" and your anti-tracking level to "strict" in the settings. Once again, the recent scholarly research and the testing is pretty much all in agreement. The scholarly research into that question is pretty much unanimous. However, from a purely technical perspective, Tor Browser is far and away the vastly superior privacy browsing experience in terms of being nearly impossible to track via fingerprinting. But if you find a good VPN that actually keeps its promises, you could probably pull it off. Tor over VPN is one method that might work for you, although most of the VPN's appear to be compromised as well. Good luck keeping secrets from them due to your choice of web browsers. That would be the NSA, who already has backdoors into your email, your cell phone, your ISP, your DNS provider, your router, your security cameras, your car, your doorbell, your thermostat, and your refrigerator. If most browsers are based on it, so be it, but let the innovation happen from a level playing field.For the unscrupulous owners of exit nodes. The health of the browser ecosystem would benefit from a cleaner, company-agnostic version of Chromium (and maybe call it something else). Y’all can call me an ignorant asshole in January 2032 if Mozilla still has a competitive browser engine. Mozilla’s money seems to come from Google anyway so it’s tough to imagine Mozilla’s browser engines hanging on for that much longer.

You can imagine Apple hanging onto their own thing with WebKit forever, but things don’t seem to be going terribly well at Mozilla, and they haven’t for a while. I have zero doubt that the browser world is converging on Chromium.

Remove all code specific to Google web services.Remove all remaining background requests to any web services while building and running the browser.Perhaps most notable is ungoogled-chromium. Seems a smidge weird to me, but hey, it’s open-source, so if you don’t like it, fork it. It’s that if you want to base another browser on Chromium, you have to yank stuff out of Chromium. Sounds like Dan (and by extension: me) learned through this thread that Chromium isn’t actually just the core browser stuff where Chrome then adds stuff on top of it.

Is there a regularly updated mod of chrome that’s basically chromium (so chrome minus google-specific stuff except search) but also without experimental features and always based on a stable revision- Dan December 28, 2021
