I am currently using brave browser in my PC and I don't trust them 100%. However, vanadium browser seems promising. Is there a similar browser for desktop? I am using linux mint.
Thanks

nbl However, vanadium browser seems promising.
Yes. In my opinion, it is the best mobile web browser available. Depending on your needs and threat model, there's always Tor. Mullvad Browser is pretty new and, therefore, not as fleshed out compared to other browsers. It does look promising, though.
Librewolf is a good out the box lazy browser if you want somthing decent. It’s on par with TOR and as others have said the mullvad browser which is basically re skinned TOR.
It comes with a lot of privacy by default and has no telemetry unless you explicitly download things like auto updaters etc. I prefer it to chromium as RFP is better on Firefox when you’re on PC.’
I use Mullvad as my everyday/everything browser, Librewolf for a select number of websites I'd rather stay logged in. Sometimes Tor as well, mostly out of curiosity because my threat model does not actually require Tor.
If you don't want/need to deal with the drawbacks involved with browsing on Tor, I'd say Mullvad is the best choice to resist fingerprinting, given how it essentially reuses Tor's method to blend users in a crowd, which is the only really effective way to fight against fingerprinting.
If you really need to keep some cookies/session tokens, I'd recommend Librewolf. The only thing to keep in mind is that it does not support auto-updates, so you do need to take extra steps to make sure you have the latest version. There's an extension that can make the process smoother.
Just installed librewolf. As soon as I opened the app, it connected to googleusercontent.com. Straightaway I am leaking my IP to google. I tried to upload a screenshot but couldn't.
ungoogled chromium should give you the security of chrome while minimizing the privacy concerns using a g product entails. it even supports add-ons (with some effort).
double posted, my bad
treequell What about Iridium? It appears a lot closer, at least to me.
nbl Curious, I wonder why... What's even on that domain? It doesn't connect when I type into a browser...
itsjpb Thank you. I will try this one. However, chrome was never built with privacy in mind. You can go to this website to check your browser's protection against tracking

Vanadium is same in this case!
nbl thank you for the link!
Now, what to do...
