Is it okay to use Chromium nowadays?

Since Firefox is starting to suck, I'm thinking of switching.

Use Pale Moon, it's basically Firefox before it became trash

It's fine on Linux.
The Windows builds don't have h.264 and mp3 decoders.
>>
>>52089468
On Linux you normally have ffmpeg installed, maybe that's why.
>>
>>52089431
use youtube-dl

>>52089771
how?

Never ask /g/ if it's "okay" to do something. You won't find the answer you're looking for.

>>52089116
i would use chromium if it didn't use a forced ugly as fuck UI that matches nothing

its as shitty as steam. there aren't enough differences between it and firefox to make me care enough to use it despite its appearance

Chromium is just the beta version of Chrome now. The whole project is funded by google and partially developed by them.

Same botnet, different color, more features.

If you care about the botnet, i advise against it. But if you dont mind the botnet like me, its a good browser. It does the thing that it needs to do, browse. And it does it well.

>pale moon
>windows 7
You installed Pale Moon to fit in on /g/, but you still use Windows because of 'my vidya' and the fact that you don't actually care about your privacy.
>>
>>52092812
What if he has it installed with no harmful updates, and telemetry disabled because he actually likes using it?

Wait, no, really. Why do you even HAVE a computer if with everything you do, you can't even fucking USE it?

Try focusing on real world solutions to these mass privacy invasions, rather than boycotting software and pouting about it on the internet like that's ever going to change anything.

Wow, you're really fucking retarded. I'm not even going to explain your extreme, anomalous retardation. I'll just sit in laughing at you.
>>
>>52093173
Are you gonna have to download an extension first to start laughing? Considering how slow your brain is that's probably gonna take some time.
>>
>>52093186
Extensions don't even come into the equation. Stay full retard.
>>
>>52089116
There are a lot of good open source browsers out there. Just remember to ignore the resident vivaldi shills that apparently get paid to lurk here.

Nice, stay destroyed,

No, no anon. You got your downloads mixed up and accidentally downloaded getting mad instead of laughing.

I don't know why your reddit is intensifying but I'd get that checked out if I were you.
