If you're looking for a Bromite successor, right now best way is to download the uazo builds direct from GitHub: https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools There are some third party tools that will download the releases for you, but I'm fine to just manually pop by the repo whenever ungoogled-chromium[0] updates on my desktop.

Hmm, Thorium should be fine, at the very least? Its very close to vanilla Chromium/Google Chrome, with nothing that should mess up rendering. There are also experimental Windows builds of Bromite (another Chrome fork that is very close to Chromium, but with a light built-in adblocker.) https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools#test-windows-vers...

uazo is doing a great job maintaining it but there is still an undecidedness to it: See https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools/issues/109#issuec... and https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools/issues/76 and https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools/issues/59

Oh actually I was mistaken, looks like dev builds are still up here: https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools/releases/ I do not like Brave's business model (replacing web ads with their own, even setting the crypto thing aside), but I will check out your link if Bromite fizzles out.
