I use Vanadium for high-security tasks, but Mull is my default browser for standard browsing. It has better privacy, because it has built-in anti-fingerprinting mechanisms and you can actually install proper adblockers like uBlock Origin. Also, I don’t want to support Google’s monopoly on browser rendering engines by using a Chromium-based browser, so I prefer Mull which is based on Gecko.
In terms of security, Vanadium is better than Mulch. Mulch uses some of the patches of Vanadium, but it lacks many security improvements that are present in Vanadium. My current setup is Vanadium for tasks where high security is very important, and Mull for just standard browsing.
