      Brave is kinda shady with their whole cryptocurrency thing, Helium seems fine but it’s still based on Chromium. I’ve been recommending people check out Librewolf

        Simple Firefox is perfectly fine.

        Ungoogled Chromium is my standby for the instances when a Blink browser is needed, though it’s not entirely simple to set up.

          Librewolf doesn’t do anything that Firefox can’t do with extensions + tweaking settings, but it’s nice to not have to install all the extensions

          Yeah that’s why I’m debating brave. Firefox is good to especially after the huge engine overhaul a few years ago.

        Yeah, I’ve been on brave for a few years but switched to Firefox because it’s a different base. I don’t think it’s necessary better, but if that’s the way the wind is blowing on chromium browsers the it’s the best option.
