    I made my own list of non-American browsers recently when trying to switch from Brave. It gets a bit murky with open-source projects that have global contributors (and sometimes anonymous creators) but here it is:

    Cromite, Ungoogled Chromium, Vivaldi

    Floorp, Waterfox, Librewolf, Zen

      Ecosia also have a desktop browser. It’s basically ungoogled chrome with a green default theme. You can also change the search engine to something else

        I use their search engine but wasn’t convinced the browser offered much, personally.

      @Madbrad200

      IDK Floorp, and I have limited experience w/Zen.

      I have tested and used every other one on your list.

      They are all pretty good, considering the current state of the Internet.

      My daily drivers are Librewolf and Vivaldi.

      Bruce Schneier says Vivaldi is secure enough for him.
