it is indeed quite good. pc version for some reason can interfere with 3rd party firewalls like eset, and going to whine about certifications. android version still doesnt have extension support, however it has a proper blocker and darktheme thing built in.

alltogether not a bad broser, and its INSANELY fast. just needs some time to iron out the quirks.

A private, customizable Chromium experience for those who can't find hardened, alternative browsers such as Mull viable for their mobile use cases.

Built-in adblocker with custom list support, local userscript support in lieu of extensions, built-in dark mode and translate features, a multitude of privacy and UI enhancements removed Google integrations that are on-par with Ungoogled Chromium and access to desktop settings such as chrome//flags makes this the definitive Chromium experience for mobile users.

The description says: "which is practically got abandoned, as it has not been updated since December of 2022"

Can someone please explain this situation to me? The app development seems to be active...

foxy wolf

It means that bromite got abandoned, not the cromite which is a fork of it

Francewhoa

Hell Guess :) foxy wolf is correct. Cromite was frequently updated sine 2011.

I am also assuming that the text was referring to Bromite was abandoned. In comparison, Cromite is still maintained.

What is Cromite?

Cromite is a Chromium derivative based on Bromite with ad-blocking and privacy enhancements.

It includes various privacy features to give users control over their online presence. Key features include the ability to change the user agent and DNS, and anti-fingerprinting measures.

Cromite aims to limit browser functions that could track user behavior and reduce integration with the browser manufacturer for a more private browsing experience.
