    The Chromium web browser supposedly is much more secure than Firefox. But Google Chrome is known for its privacy issues, so is there a browser with all the advantages of Chrome but without these drawbacks?
    You guessed it, there are several actually, one of the most popular for Windows, macOS and Linux is the Ungoogled Chromium project.

    I think people are still confused about it because it still has Chromium in the name. Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge and Ungoogled Chromium is build upon Chromium. Chromium is open source project started by Google. Ungoogled Chromium is a fork / different version modified by different people with different goals than Chromium. The goal is to be more secure and independent off Google I guess.

On Windows, Chromium based Browsers dont even bother, whats even Vram bro, lemme just remove from the ram the tabs you havn't visited the last 3 tabs switch, and just refresh it whenever you return. All i had to remember is the URL and tab's thumbnail lol.
      I could open 60 tabs on single Chrome window and 40 in another, i can open as much tab on Chrome that the tabs symbol become unclickable, and chrome is like, do you want open more tabs? That's ok, i just have to refresh old tabs once you return to them, cause you dont have much ram.
      Firefox? Oh bro, Firefox tries to keep tabs in ram, it can keep more tabs in ram than chrome, up to six MAX, but once i hit RAM limit. . . Dear god.
      My entire system hangs, slow downs to oblivion, OS unresponsive as hell, 100% disk I/O by Firefox, while doing nothing. Once i hit that condition, i disconnected from net, not Helped. Firefox Hogged my entire HDD I/O for HALF A HOUR, while doing... nothing. Windows couldn't even run task manager. Finally i got task manager running and ended Firefox's misery. Can you imagine THAT? Full disk read/write on a browser that is not even connected to net for the past thirty or so minutes and all Firefox have to do is to cache tabs into VRAM.
      On Linux OS? Same problem with Firefox, it just takes a bit longer to hit the RAM limit, like three or four tabs more compared to windows, but once it hit the RAM limit and starts to swap, same problem as windows.
      Chromium based browsers play nice with linux too, they try to swap files on linux, in opposition to just clearing the tab from RAM on windows, and they hit in performance once swapping begins, but in reasonable amount. You could say swap is slow, yeah, and loading tabs from swap is, but its not like the madness Firefox causes.

      Microsoft finally nailed it with Edge. I still use Vivaldi as main browser on desktop, but I'd recommend everyone who doesn't want Google Chrome to trust Microsoft again (in terms of having a good browser). Though I gotta say, previous Edge was solid too. Firefox caused significantly more trouble while developing than old Edge (and don't get me started with Safari, it's worse than IE ever was). It wasn't buggy at all and had frequent updates, it just would never have kept up with Google.

    The idea of using Firefox is so that we do not have another Internet Explorer, if that hasn't happened already. Chrome is everywhere and using Chromium isn't helping in this regard. yet again, developers won't bother respecting the standards, but what Google emphasizes with their browser. Why bother with all of this when Firefox is working just fine? Poorer security? I highly doubt so - a different security model does not necessarily mean weaker. Plus, even though it may be lacking in some areas today, the direction is there, they ar emaking improvements.

      @vali20vali20vali20 Před 3 lety +1

      @edward Google does not impose a direction on how Firefox is developed and how they do business. They pay them so that Google remains the default search engine, which is fine by me. I am not against Google, I am just against using them, and this applies to any other company, as the provider of all the services. Like, I do not mind searching with Google, it is a very good product, but Google offering a browser, storage, email, documents suite etc etc, that can become dangerous. Also, with search, they provide a very good product, like we all know how Bing never finds what we want, but Chrome to me offers nothing groundbreaking above Firefox so it is a no brainer to support Mozilla, not to mention their philosophy.

Once they give up and another entity becomes the default search engine, they will have a chance to change their mind only when the new entity gives up this privilege. That’s how it works. And as for Linux, I don’t get all this Microsoft aversion, what have they done specific here to be perceived as a threat?

      I think it was clear, but could have been better. It's chromium minus all features which relied on Google. No safe search, no chrome web store, no autocomplete in URL, no autosync because all these features used Google in the backend. If you use this browser, you can be assured that it's not pinging google in the background.

      Brave is a chromium reskin but with bloat and facebook, amazon and twitter trackers + uses targeted ads. Not to mention it had a huge dns leak recently. Its also been proven to not protect against fingerprinting

    On Android look for Bromium (using fdroid).
    And for Windows I love chrlauncher which allows you to auto-update and choose which build of Chromium (including ungoogled) you want to use.
