The only problem with Ungoogled that makes it "not ideal for a normal human" is that fact that it is still cumbersome af to download it. Regular people don't know github and how to click on "show all assets" and pick the right build.

Is https://download-chromium.appspot.com/ not good enough?

I don't use this as a my main browser though, just for testing. I don't recommend Chromium backends due to Google control over it.

Do you not realize that regular users may struggle to install extensions without the extension store? This is because ungoogled Chromium lacks that feature.

No I did not and I'm not sure what you imagine "regular users" might be. I feel that if someone goes the extra length to get their browser outside of a store, they can do the same with extensions, is it extravagant?
