Description

Bromite is a modified version of Chromium that focuses on ad blocking and improved privacy, empowering users to reclaim their browsing experience. Its primary aim is to deliver a streamlined browsing interface devoid of intrusive privacy features while incorporating a rapid ad-blocking engine. To reinforce the concept of a browser free from advertisements, it employs minimal user interface changes. All modifications made to Bromite are released under the GNU/GPL v3 license, allowing other open-source initiatives to benefit from its enhancements. This browser is exclusively compatible with Android Lollipop (version 5.0, API level 21) and newer versions. Users can customize ad-block filters with their own URLs, eliminate click-tracking and AMP from search results, and enjoy DNS-over-HTTPS support through any legitimate IETF DoH endpoint. It features a perpetually active incognito mode, permanently disables all field trials, and deactivates smart search by default while enabling web searches from incognito sessions. Additionally, it maintains visibility for cookies, JavaScript, and ads site settings and removes binary blobs related to Play integration, while also employing Control Flow Integrity (CFI) across all architectures, with the exception of x86. This dedication to user privacy and performance positions Bromite as a powerful alternative for those seeking a more secure browsing experience on mobile devices.

Description

Thorium implements various adjustments to the compiler configuration file, significantly enhancing browser performance, albeit at the expense of increased size. It utilizes the official builds of Chrome and incorporates Profile Guided Optimization (PGO), a strategy that leverages a profile data file produced by a profiler to refine the entire binary. This profiler conducts a preliminary run of the binary, capturing data on which code sections are most frequently accessed, their memory access behaviors, and the data they commonly retrieve. While numerous Chromium-based browsers incorporate some of these optimizations, Thorium stands out by combining all of them to deliver an exceptionally efficient browsing experience across platforms including Linux, Windows, MacOS, and Raspberry Pi. This comprehensive approach not only enhances speed but also aims to provide users with a seamless and responsive interface, making it a preferred choice for those seeking ultimate performance.
