While I agree it would be nice, Flatpak weakens the Chromium sandbox by stopping proper per site isolation. Chromium in Flatpak relies on the zypak server in place of proper strict isolation.
i never knew that, i always thought chromium under flatpak was using Chromiums sandbox.
then its better to install any Chromium/electron apps outside of sandbox/flatpak which is hard on majority of distros.
Firefox is even more insecure as a Flatpak than Chromium. At least with Chromium using zypak it can use some Flatpak sandboxing (which is still inferior to base)
Doesnt come with proper fingerprinting protections or flag hardening. I am not saying ungoogled Chromium is bad, just not a proper replacement for hardened chromium browsers like Cromite or Brave. Ungoogled Chromium is a drop in replacement for Chrome, so it does nearly everything possible to stick with defaults (sans any google connections)
True, but it feels more barbones ngl.
On arch based Chromite isn’t a problem, but on Debian or other distros yeah it is a problem.
why is it bare bones and it doesnt have the features found in chromite:
Ungoogled chromium focuses more on vanilla chromium without Google components
no built in adblock (useful after google killed manifest v3)
No fingerprint blocking
no privacy features
I wish it was on flatpak/flathub, favourite chromium browser if I need to use chromium for any reason.

Oh dang I didn’t know

Just use ungoogled. It’s decent enough.
