Iridium excels in speed across the board, featuring rapid startup, quick loading times, and the ability to render intricate websites with impressive efficiency. While Chromium, the foundation of Iridium, is a secure browser, it does have a tendency to connect back to Google, prompting us to implement further enhancements to maximize security. Iridium is designed for universal accessibility; it’s user-friendly and requires no specialized knowledge to navigate. Built on the Chromium framework, Iridium introduces modifications that prioritize user privacy and leverage the latest security technologies. It actively prevents the automatic transmission of partial queries, keywords, and metrics to central services, ensuring that such actions only take place with explicit user consent. Moreover, all our builds are reproducible, and the modifications can be audited, positioning Iridium ahead of other secure browser options. Transparency is key with Iridium, as users can easily access our public Git repository to review all alterations made to the code. This commitment to user empowerment and security truly sets Iridium apart in the realm of web browsing.
