I dont use any, but appcontainer is the one you can enable without worrying

Also site strict isolation is one.

NOTE: Site isolation is enabled by default on desktop platforms it seems

I've enabled these two flags with the name (Appcontainer) and Strict Site Isolation, will these 3 flags conflict with each other?
Thanks! if you have more handfull flags feel free to share :)

I've don't have enabled all the flags that are named there..
Some flags lowers the privacy or even destroys the security on Chrome like:

#enable-top-document-isolation (puts all isolated iframes together in stead of each in its own)
#disallow-doc-written-script-loads
#num-raster-threads
#reduced-referrer-granularity

Some well known security researchers sayed that to me,.. don't know if it's true orn't.. :/

Feel free to share some information for these flags, and correct me if i'm wrong orn't :)
Cheers!

No, you shouldn't enable all flags, they are experiments:

Some of the flags are for speeding up Chrome besides for privacy and security
