... browser, that is: https://brave.com
After running my favourite browser with a growing handful of extensions to protect online privacy (uBlock Origin, HTTPS Everywhere, Privacy Badger, AdBlock & Tor Proxy) I happened upon the Brave browser.
It's based on Chromium, I believe, and pre-configured with all those privacy measures ... all rolled into one "shield" which you can click to see what you're missing, so to speak. It does regular tabs, private tabs and Tor tabs. Sync is via a blockchain type seed. You can also enable payments to your favourite websites since you're no longer enjoying their adverts - advertising is the past; embrace the blockchain!
I've been running it on macOS (desktop) and Ubuntu (laptop), for which I downloaded the .deb rather than running the pre-built snap in the apt repository.
As a browser, it's sound! Browse like a Lion!
