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?

Cool! Brave is best for fingerprinting protection, the pretty much plain Chromiums dont really have that.

No the base Browser needs to be hardened. On top of that you can install addons but privacy badger is pretty weak afaik, and canvas is just one vector. There still is UA, Apis, referrer policies, WebGL etc
