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 cromite, and it’s good, but the adblocker is unable to handle the more aggressive popups and ads, whereas firefox + uBO does fine.

    Thus, cromite is my main browser and I use firefox for… other stuff. This setup is mainly because I’m too lazy to install Mull or another firefox based browser to be my main option.
