I use Brave to test whether my websites work on Chromium browsers, but their scummy actions lately make me want to find a new Chromium browser to test with. What's the best Chromium based browser?

I already use Firefox for browsing normally, but I have to test on a Chromium based browser too. One soft requirement is that it should be installable with Flatpak on Linux.

if you use Windows and want to have Chrome, why not just use Edge? It’s just conveniently therr, you need nothing to install.

It works with everything that “needs” chrome.

edit: one comment gave me the idea you use Windows but now I’m not sure in it. if not, then sry, ignore this comment :)

hperrin,

I don’t use Windows much, but Edge is available on Mac and Linux. I’m just not a fan of all the “features” they put in it. I’m looking for more of a clean browser experience, if you get what I mean.

intensely_human,

Why not use Chromium then?

I think you can’t go more clean than Chromium. Pretty sure all browsers based on Chromium has some extra features, since those are the only differences in them. Vivaldi, Brave, Maxthon etc…, the same engine in different car, with different extras.

this is why I usually recommend people to use Edge if they really want Chrome, since on Windows, it’s already there. But yeah, on Linux, I wouldn’t really tell anyone to apt install edge.

YungOnions,

Tempest browser is basically Brave but without the Crypto stuff. It’s still in beta atm so take that as you will.

blackbrook,

This page might be helpful.

hperrin,

This is awesome! Thank you.

Unfortunately, based just on this, Brave seems to be the best, but there’s additional stuff in Brave that makes it much less appealing.
