There are two distinct things to optimize for here: your immediate privacy, and the future of a non-corporate web.

If all you care about is the former, then do... whatever. But if you also care about the latter, you cannot use a browser that supports the Chromium monopoly. That means using any Firefox fork. Personally I use Firefox itself because it's Mozilla that employs a paid security team, whose work all the forks are freeloading off.
