I am struggling with this decision.

Are we sure we can't "capture" Blink and make it thrive with a completely open source, privacy-oriented, corporate-free community?

I have an eye on Cromite lately: https://github.com/uazo/cromite

I would like to listen to nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 opinion on this regard.

Developing and maintaining a browser engine is a huge endeavor requiring a lot of experienced man power.

Any fork will just be catching up with Google's version which just has more developer firepower.

#Bromite was a one time great de-googled browser which lacks all the crypto-💩#Brave comes with. Its great it was revived through the #Cromite fork and hope it continues to be developed.

From #Firefox based browsers apparently #Mull is a good one. For desktop #LibreWolf is a nice privacy oriented fork. #TorBrowser is also a hardened Firefox browser.

I have no experience with #Mullvad which is unrelated to #Mull browser.

I tried all these, Bromite was my favorite.

I'm only worried that a one-developer-browser can be too much vulnerable.

#Bromite was and still is my favorite regardless being outdated. Will be substituted by #Cromite but not instantly. Maybe its me but the only downside I have met with it is its unable to erase history on exit. I have to do it manually, #Brave has the edge here. I cant stand #Brave being super private but constantly talking to a miriad of own servers. Something seems wrong to me with this super hyped browser.
