I already use Firefox for browsing normally, but I have to test on a Chromium based browser too. One soft requirement is that it should be installable with Flatpak on Linux.

Yes. I’ve considered that, but does it still report back to Google? Even though that majority of what I visit will be “http://127.0.0.1:8080”, I’d still rather not be spied on by Google.
How about Ungoogled Chromium?
I though that was Linux only, but I just looked it up and it is also available on Mac.
It’s not available on Windows, but I’m ok with that.
I will add that to the list to try out.
I’m confused. In your initial post, the only OS you mentioned was Linux:
But you don’t use/want a Linux browser…?
I mostly code on Linux, but I also code on Mac, since I have to test on Safari. I don’t really ever code on Windows. Windows exists on a separate disk in my computer just to boot into every 3 or 4 months when I release a new version of a desktop app and need to build for Windows.
So I want a browser that at least works on Linux and Mac. What I meant in my post was I wanted it installable through Flatpak rather than a snap or deb, since I use Fedora.
It does phone home, but with the right DNS settings you can block that. Heck, if you’re just going to localhost you can disconnect the machine from the network entirely.
