... Looks like it's time to switch browsers again. Anyone got any suggestions? Preferably a Chromium-based privacy-focused browser without any crypto-related bells and whistles. And it has to be able to sync between Android and desktop.

Why chromium based? I use Firefox and it's very rare I come across a website that has an issue with it

It's not that I'm afraid of compatibility issues. It's more that I already had enough trouble bringing over all my settings the last time I switched browsers, and that was between two Chromium-based browsers. I'm willing to go through that same trouble again, but I'd rather not increase it if possible.

If it's for the bookmarks, you can export that, possibly also for the password manager (although that's riskier). As far as history etc, does that really matter? What other settings would you need to bring across
