My main browser is Librewolf but I keep a chromium browser just in case. Previously used brave but their flatpak is shit. Ungoogled chromium seems ok but it looks like they don’t change much from upstream chromium. Any good chromium browsers which harden their browsers like librewolf does for more privacy?

I use hardened Chrome with a lot of flags/features disabled and some privacy extensions. It’s good enough for me.

Chrome or Chromium? Because that “hardening” is only the switches they allow you to use, so if its full of proprietary tracking software it is not hardened at all

Chrome. I know that might be hard to believe but the switches work. You can absolutely stop Google from prefetching their usual services. Plus I don’t login with a Google account on the browser, that makes a huge difference.
