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? (lemmy.world)

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.

I though that was Linux only, but I just looked it up and it is also available on Mac.

It’s not available on Windows, but I’m ok with that.

I will add that to the list to try out.

Definitely available on Windows too, here: https://chromium.woolyss.com/#windows

That’s vanilla Chromium.

Ungoogled Chromium is not officially released on Windows, only through a third party.

I'm confused. In your initial post, the only OS you mentioned was Linux:

One soft requirement is that it should be installable with Flatpak on Linux.

But you don't use/want a Linux browser...?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I mostly code on Linux, but I also code on Mac, since I have to test on Safari. I don’t really ever code on Windows. Windows exists on a separate disk in my computer just to boot into every 3 or 4 months when I release a new version of a desktop app and need to build for Windows.

So I want a browser that at least works on Linux and Mac. What I meant in my post was I wanted it installable through Flatpak rather than a snap or deb, since I use Fedora.
