I would recommend using librewolf thorium for normal task and if the site doesnt work with it i use thorium. Librewolf is slower than thorium but it is for me the better default version of Firefox. Loading yt is really slow with librewolf so I use freetube or invidious to watch content.

I've tried installing thorium but I can't get it to compile correctly and I don't wanna sit there forever trying to get it working so I just gave up and installed chrome

So on their github are appimages, .rpm and .deb available. Idk if you can convert .deb or .rpm files to alpine compatible packages but the appimage should run eververe

I've tried the app image and it didn't work, I looked it up and the consensus is appimages won't run because of musl libc instead of glibc

You could also try to convert and install the .deb or .rpm packages see here as reverence

Or maybe use distrobox if this doesn't work. Pretty much anything is better than chrome

I have switched to brave for everything now and I really don't wanna go through the hassle of trying to convert package formats
