How many of these apply to ungoogled-chromium?

A lot of the privacy aspects mentioned in the article would apply but the extra features(like facebook container) would not. The extension support is also an issue since the extensions themselves have their own privacy policies, so if you get any which are hosted on google owned chrome web store all your privacy cautiousness goes down the drain unless you're using a vpn.

Firefox addons also have their own privacy policies but you can simply choose the ones with open source licenses so it should be rather simple to be more protected.

Why not Brave? I mean... Firefox is fine, just, some of the extensions I need for example are not available on it.
