As you're already familiar with chrome try Vivaldi, it's built on a fork of the chrome engine so it will handle all Chrome's bits and pieces but it was created by Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner, who was one of the guys that built and founded Opera back in the day but jumped ship before it got sold out to a Chinese consortium, so not only does it come from the gold standard of pushing the browser envelope from Opera but also von Tetzchner's vehement stance on privacy which has always been a huge part of his ethos.
So if you're after a browser that comes stacked with features like speed dial, mouse gestures, password vault, collapsible side bar (so everything isn't mooshed into the top bar) to name just a few (I'd literally be typing all day otherwise), as well as an iron clad focus on privacy that isn't just for show (have a look into von Tetzchner and read some of his blogs and you'll see) then I highly recommend Vivaldi.
