FlipSid On the Safe Browsing and Malware / Phishing / etc is where I am having trouble.
Where does enumerating badness start and where does it stop.

Malware can't do much on Android because of sandboxing, Chromium browsers use sandbox-based site isolation which is a powerful security feature that protects privacy, it's enhanced in Vanadium, don't install unknown apps on unofficial links, don't visit dodgy links, phising is a social engineering attack that relies on a lack of vigilance on your part, example, opening an email link without checking the URL and sender.
FlipSid Right know I'm running dnsO/Zero (alternative to Quad9) on a DNS Level.
Note that this is limited to DNS

FlipSid Or let me ask the other way around. Comparison between standard Chrome / Brave and Vanadium:
Is Vanadium so hardened that it makes up for safe browsing?
Secure browsing and browser hardening are two different things, browser hardening is a systemic approach that aims to reduce the attack surface and prevent entire classes of vulnerabilities, secure browsing as presented by Google in Chrome is essentially an Antivirus in the browser. I don't use Brave but I think it's OK to use it. Standard Chrome is Chromium vanilla with Google services imposed by default.
