If Ungoogled Chromium does what it says that is huge because it means browsers like /brave would not be dependent on Google support of Chromium for core libraries or services. Thanks to @nocrimez.eth for the share! https://x.com/nocrimez/status/1867620242576306589

Pretty sure they depend on Google to maintain the quality of Chromium. For a true open source alternative I have high hopes for https://ladybird.org/ and their web engine. Early days but they are moving fast

Getting apps to build for their version of extensions/add-ons will be hard. Everything else like bookmarks should be easy to import which is the most important part of a browser to quickly open views from the address bar and use custom search engines with shortcuts like you can do in Firefox. https://warpcast.com/adamhurwitz.eth/0xe513df25

Extensions is interesting, I kind of don't like em from a security perspective. I think most people are way too liberal when it comes to installing extensions and give them excess rights to their browsers/machines.

Agreed. I only have 2 enabled most of the time and toggle the other ones on as needed. Theoretically the ad blocker extension isn't needed if the built-in blocker in the browser is good enough. Crypto software accounts would have to have an added step through WalletConnect and not connect directly to sites which is not great. Password manager and dark mode extensions are a very nice to have too.
