Hello! I have been trying to get a download link for Comodo IceDragon the 64-bit version but I was not so lucky.
icedragon.comodo.com gives you the 32-bit version.
I have also looked on their forums but with no luck. Does anyone here have a link for that? Thank you in advance :)

- they add 2 -3 in-house useless extensions.
- set a useless DNS.
- updates are way behind the original version , means you are using a weaker browser.

i think i summed it up.

I have been testing the 64bit version of Comodo, you can disable the in house extensions which I have, except the online security one to see how it works and opt not to use their DNS during installation, which I did, but you are right about being behind the original version, it is definitely a downside.

Edit: Oops never mind I am using Comodo Dragon 64bit not Ice Dragon I have not tested that one yet.

The installer did not ask me about their DNS. Moreover, whenever I search for sth using CID I get a certificate error

And hoe about the data and telemetry they harvest ;):)
Ice dragon is pretty much just worse than firefox itself

But comodo dragon ( chromium) is offering alot more compared to google chrome
+ google safe browsing
+ their own secure dns
+ remove browsing history/cookies etc. on exit
+ superior sll ( i prefer the ui aswell over google chrome)
+ easy to run virtualized with comodo fw
+ less telemetry
Also it has some kind of tracking protection

So firefox > ice dragon
Dragon > chrome

But would advise to keep eye on update cycle so you wont run run outdated browser some day, bigger names will stay on market for sure
