Anyone still on chrome 🫠 https://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/google-chrome-most-unsafe-brows[…]2022-with-303-vulnerabilities-report-122100600297_1.html

Useless article. Just because something has less reported vulnerabilities doesn’t mean it’s secure.

and why do you think the other browsers have less reported vulnerabilities to begin with?

Maybe less number of users?

1. chrome has the highest market share- makes sense that it gets to be the browser that is most looked to due to the stack surface and blast radius 2. Google’s got a bug bounty program while many others don’t. See https://bughunters.google.com/about. 3. Chromium is the base for many browsers- edge, brave included. 4. an unreported vulnerability due to above factors means lesser vulnerabilities doesn’t mean safer. see also

The Google Chrome ecosystem works flawlessly for me. All the activity across all devices gets synced seamlessly. No matter what everyone says it does work very well and has frequent updates. What alternatives we have?

The state of journalism is pathetic. There's so much manipulation and cherry picking, that people without context are often misled.

The article is misleading, it obscures the fact that it is most used and tested browser. I would say it is the most secure because it surfaced many vulnerabilities and are being actively fixed. All the other browsers would still hold a lot of hidden vulnerabilities that were not made public and being exploited in the wild. Less vulnerabilities reported doesn’t necessary mean it’s a secure browser. I 100% agree with @modern-table-48211 on this.

Brave is based on Chromium and offers better privacy. Nothing wrong with Chrome per se but I personally I don't want to live in Google's Digital Jail.

Been using brave for almost 3 years now and coupled with an ad blocker (you might not even need one) you will be shocked when you visit a chrome browser next time.

Also, Sometimes vulnerabilities are just reported for the sake of it. Most of them might not have high CVSS score. In Github also there are many vulnerabilities popping up very often for many third party libraries. So just don’t go after numbers. Rather lookout for the impact of the vulnerability.

A vast majority of news outlets are just trying to catch eyeballs to get paid via pay-per-view or pay-per-click ads. These headlines are engineered to do just that. I'd note that although Chrome has rock solid process to catch CVEs , their track record for privacy isn't all aboveboard - their parent organisation's business model depends on users not having privacy.
