A little admiration of how easy UI customization is on Firefox, and how shitty Chromium looks.

      Fair point, but the engine is important.

      I understand their blog post, and if I were to build a browser today, I’d probably do the same.

      But that doesn’t mean this situation isn’t problematic. It’s similar to car-centric infrastructure: in this situation, for any individual, choice X makes sense, but that will make the situation even worse for the whole population. A cumulation of many tiny Prisoner’s Dilemmas.

      I wrote Chromiun in the description too. Chrome is simply what people use.

      Plain Chromium, even with all GUI settings, all degoogle policy configs and flags enabled, contacts Google like hell.

      I tried googeeteller and its scary.

      Have not tried Vivaldi for a long time, but its fingerprinting resistance was nonexistent, it is filled with useless features and has no container support, so nah.
