After debloat my android (i dont have a custom ROM for my oneplus) I started use Cromite and Mull. I used duckduckgo app during a few months, but sometimes I feel it a bit clunky. Overall is a good app but I decided try another browsers and forget about DDG. Mull has a good UI and has a nice tools like Ublock and others , but the connection … Is VERY slow. Take a bunch of time to enter on any site, and I did this with and without uBlock.
Otherwise, we need to talk about Cromite… Fellas, Im speechless! What a browser. So responsive, fast and privacy friendly. Have a sandbox integrated too. I know Cromite has some bugs, i know, but for an open source app, is amazing, imo.
Im trying today PrivacyBrowser and looks very good too. I need more days to get a final conclusion, but feels very promissing for my point of view. Seems a little complicated to the beginning, but with more days i guess i will understand more
Give these apps (Cromite and PrivacyBrowser) a try. They deserve and I guess they dont let you down.
(Yeah, my english is pretty bad, sorry :/ )
Please do not use any Chromium forks if you care about privacy and an open web. Cromite uses the Chromium engine, which is by Google.
“But Chromium is open source, so that means good, no?”: Not always. Developing a browser is very hard and requires a lot of time and resources. Therefore, even when you can fork Chromium in theory, maintaining this separate fork becomes incredibly difficult. Google of course does not allow any privacy centric code to be pushed to the Chromium codebase. It in fact, does the opposite. Look at the ManifestV3 drama for instance. The solution to all of this is using Firefox mobile or forks of it.
There are some security considerations to using a Firefox-based browser on Android. In my experience, performance and stability has not been as good on Firefox Android as Chromium Android.

What security considerations are you mentioning? The only slight drawbacks that I see in the listed source are privacy ones. Those too can be mitigated by extensions. In my experience, Fdroid Fennec has been very stable and decently fast.
