ok so I have this ghostery thing and am now using duckduckgo as my default web search. The thing is, I'm on Chrome now and ghostery isn't able to block trackers in Chrome to the extent it can through other browsers (figures...). So my question is to those of you with Macs: what browser would you recommend that is as stripped back as Chrome but would allow better privacy? Also, I've used Opera (which I like) but uses about 2gb of ram for some stupid reason, and sometimes crashes my whole computer, so that's a no-go.

Chromium is the open source version of Chrome, basically it's Chrome without all the Google tie-ins
