    The browser is functional but requires improvements. For instance, certain websites, such as YouTube, experience slow loading times. Additionally, the inability to add extensions due to restrictions limits its usability. It would also be more convenient if the browser were provided as an .exe file rather than a zip archive

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...

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

Replying to @Guest

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.

Beautiful Open Source Apps for Android (nice & modern UI/UX)

UI = User Interface UX = User eXperience Most open source apps offer out-dated or classic material design UI. If the apps works great and the UX is not terrible you might find it okay. But intuitive UI are better, and modern looking ones are pleasant to use, sadly they are not the majority. Here is my list of Beautiful Open Source Apps for your android device ! Apps are listed in alphabetical order ! Also look at : The ultimate F-Droid setup for more open source android apps. and Beautiful Open Source Apps for iOS for your iOS device DISCLAIMERS Nice UI comes to personnal preference. So this list is only based on my taste of what is a good modern looking app. While open source is great for privacy and security it is not perfect. So keep that in mind before downloading any apps. I again encourage you to do your own research about them and read their Privacy Policies. I am not a privacy and security expert. I'm also don't consider myself as a developper so I do not have any technical knowledge and so I didn't look into any source code of any apps in this list !

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.
