What are some good non chromium browser alternatives besides Firefox and Safari?
I keep seen everyone recommend FF and Safari, but are there any other options that you would recommend?

That's the thing, that's it.
Firefox (Gecko), Chromium (Blink) and Safari (Webkit) are the only serious browser engines left.
Every other remotely relevant browser is just a rehash of these and it's usually from really shady for-profit companies such as Opera or Brave.

Chromium was once based on WebKit (it has since diverged) so perhaps that's what gave you that impression?
