Not all Chromium-based browsers are bad. Browsers such as Vanadium or Trivalent are very secure, and discourage the use of extensions altogether due to privacy and security risks. These browsers come with ad blocking preinstalled.
Vanadium is purely for GrapheneOS, and Trivalent is purely for Linux. Both of which also appear (looking at this on mobile) to require compiling by the user.
Soooo… an appropriate pair of tools for, what, 0.5% of all computer users in aggregate?
Really appropriate suggestions, there. /s
Show me something Windows based that can be as secure as LibreWolf along with the appropriate extensions for blocking ads, fingerprinting, CDNs, and other spyware-like content.
Because Chromium in any variation, it ain’t.
Vanadium comes preinstalled on GrapheneOS, and Trivalent comes preinstalled on Trivalent. Compatible Linux distros can add the Trivalent repo to install it without building.
LibreWolf is far from secure, as it is based on Firefox and so comes with the same security issues. If you meant to say privacy and not security, the reason nobody makes high threat model browsers for Windows is because Windows itself is not private and it would be a losing battle.
I am pretty sure that Vanadium does not have an adblocker in it.
It does have some built-in blocklists, but they’re limited compared to UBO. For example, blocking the ads on a site, but not the big HTML elements they used to be in.
I use Vanadium. It does have an ad blocker.
Settings > Site settings > Ads > BlockedNot outright stated. Closest I could tell on a skim of their site is third party blocked by default
