I honestly don't know why. If you are a Windows user and don't care about privacy, you may just as well stick with Edge. As a Chromium web browser by a megacorp, it's in no way worse than Chrome.
Honestly, not going with chrome means only one massive corp is stealing your data, not two.
I thought Chromium still phoned home to Google
It does, and there's nothing you can do about it either, other than, obviously, switching to an alternative web browser.
All chromium based do, even something like Helium can't remove that?
Unless they specifically say they don't, they do.
