Show HN: Helium Browser for Android with extensions support, based on Vanadium

Summary

Helium Browser for Android An experimental Chromium-based web browser for Android with extensions support, based on Helium by imput, as well as Vanadium by GrapheneOS Usage Installing Extensions Navigate to Chrome Web Store, then enable Desktop site by selecting the menu button ⋮ in the top right corner and ensure the option is checked. Select Okay and proceed as normal if prompted with: The Chrome Web Store is only available on desktop. Once you select Add to Chrome, the extension will be installed in the background until the button changes into Remove from Chrome. Debug URLs To view and access the debug URLs, use chrome://chrome-urls . For Experiments, use chrome://flags . WebRTC IP Policy Consistent with both Helium and Vanadium, the option is available by selecting the menu button ⋮ in the top right corner, then Settings, Privacy and security, then under Privacy, WebRTC IP handling policy. If you experience issues with WebRTC due to the IPs being shielded by default (e.g. Discord Voice), you may try to change it to Default public interface only, or Default. Implementation Warning All builds are experimental, so unexpected issues may occur. Helium Browser for Android only attempts to improve security and privacy where possible. For better protection on Android, you should instead use GrapheneOS with Vanadium, which additionally integrates patches into Android System WebView and provides significant kernel and memory management hardening on the OS level. --- config: layout: dagre --- flowchart TD subgraph s1["Helium"] n5["Generic Patches<small><br>patches/series</small>"] n6["Name Substitution<small><br>utils/name_substitution.py</small>"] n7["Version Patch<small><br>{*version,revision}.txt</small>"] n8["Resource Patch<small><br>resources/*resources.txt</small>"] end subgraph s2["Vanadium"] n9["Generic Patches<small><br>patches/*.patch</small>"] end subgraph s3["Helium Browser for Android"] n11["GN Build Configuration<small><br>args.gn</small>"] n12["Signed Releas...
