With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

Brave is built on Chromium, but has zero google telemetry and allows you to opt out of every single cookie, tracker, and javascript element at your whim or by standard. The only downside is that the “homescreen” is usually an ad for crypto, but 50% of the time it’s a nice photo.

Brave has its own issues, and it seems like new controversies are popping up every day or two, but you can disable those ads in settings. Or at least you could back when I used it.
