Greetings! I have recently ditched google and went with privacy focused alternatives. Such as SearXNG, Invidious, Lemmy etc.

However, while i was using degoogled chromium, i cant install extensions.

Is there any way i can install extensions on Degoogled Chromium? (ik this isnt the right place to ask but eh)

Thanks a lot!

    They have tracking and zero privacy. Some websites wouldnt be profitable or worth it if they couldn’t collect and sell data.

    Google is a data broker.

      Yes, that’s obvious, what I mean is if they have some kind of tools/functions that make it be able to do something others can’t. The example that comes in mind is when I was checking a website someone suggested me https://my.rhinoshield.eu/ where it says “your browser isn’t supported to do whatever it does, please install chrome”

      Firefox

      vs

      Chromium based browser

        How do we know the reason it won’t work on Firefox? It could be some trivial piece of tracking couldn’t it?
