    Been using it for months, and I adore it. +1

    Only thing I wish it had is JXL support hacked in like Thorium.

    Sometimes I shop on Cromite (specifically for its uber hardcore anti fingerprinting), or switch to Firefox for a bit, but I’ve found myself mostly using Helium.

    kinda like it been using as chromium alternative to my daily driver librewolf.

    reminds me of brave but has no brave bullshit and pretty minimalist.

    I’m mildly interested, given this is based on ungoogled chromium. But like all brand new projects these days, I’m put off by their potentially vibe coded internals.

    I’ve been using Helium as my Chromium browser of choice (used to use Brave) for a while now. Of course, I still use Mullvad Browser (FF based) as my daily driver, but Helium has been great for anything I need Chromium for. I know Firefox good Chromium bad, but if you ever need Chromium, this seems like the least of all evils.

    If you have to use garbage ass Google monopoly-ware, I’d suggest Vivaldi, but I’d recommend even avoiding that one like the plague.
