My main browser is Librewolf but I keep a chromium browser just in case. Previously used brave but their flatpak is shit. Ungoogled chromium seems ok but it looks like they don't change much from upstream chromium. Any good chromium browsers which harden their browsers like librewolf does for more privacy?

I've been using Thorium recently with no issues. Before I was using Vivaldi.

Edit, Firefox is my main browser. Thorium is used as an alt for the 2 websites that don't work in Firefox.

Edit 2; seems the developer of Thorium has made some err questionable choices. Not with the browser itself, but a mild furry nsfw easter egg, and a link to some site talking about their beliefs against a common medical procedure performed on baby boys. I have not seen either for myself as they have both been removed as the browser gained a sudden spike in popularity.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Thorium would be good but it probably has too few contributors

And it is also outdated and not privacy optimised (which seems way less documented than with Firefox). Not sure if appimages even have sandbox or if that is broken too.
