Both @charity-majors and @prynka.chatterjee raise excellent points. I’d just add that if you’re the kind of person who likes to tailor every bit of your setup, then plain Chromium might be your playground. While it’s not private by default, it’s still a Chromium-based browser focused on privacy and security if you make it so.
You can strip telemetry, use privacy-first extensions like uBlock Origin or Privacy Badger, and lock it down to your liking. It’s flexible, though it needs effort.
From a testing perspective, this is where LambdaTest really shines—especially for developers tweaking Chromium builds or configurations. It ensures your website behaves consistently, even across privacy-enhanced custom environments.
So whether you go barebones with Ungoogled, balanced with Brave, or custom with Chromium—it all depends on how hands-on you want to be.
