Posted this above, but it might interest you as an alternative to Vanadium:

Bromite hasn't been updated in a while, so you should at least switch to Cromite if you're not switching to Mull. It's a fork by a previous Bromite contributor and includes some improvements, like a bottom toolbar and adblock plus (so normal block lists, not Bromite's less customizable ad blocker.

Is Vanadium just Bromite under the hood? I thought they were separate projects...

[–] JuvenoiaAgent@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They're different, but according to its readme, Cromite includes "security enhancement patches from GrapheneOS project", so I assume it contains Vanadium's changes as well as other improvements.

Thanks for the clarification! I'll investigate.
