What's the difference now?
I've watched this video but it seems highly outdated https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzUrIBYWCDA
PDF reader: now Chromium has a in built pdf reader
Codecs: now Chromium supports H.264/MP4, WebM, Ogg/Theora, Opus, MP3, weba, WAV
Beside in built flash player, are there any important differences?
THE FUCKING SOURCE CODE
>>53330301
Not really. Google's botnet features are removed, including sync (optionally) and the auto-updater. It's the same browser otherwise.
the fact that it can update itself is the biggest factor. who the fuck wants to go download an exe every week to update it or compile shit?
>>53330458
Don't kow. I'm on Ubuntu.
#sudoApt-GetUpgradeMasterRace
>>53330458
Who the fuck wants to have Google's botnet updater running on their system 24/7 with full admin privileges? Oh, right, retard Winbabby faggots from /v/. You have to go back, Charlie.
>>53330530
you dont even need it to run 24/7. you just disable the service and manually click update. chromium cant even manage that.
>>53330565
>manually disable the update service for Google Chrome
>Manually update it when you want to
>doesn't want to install chromium
>because he has to manually update it.
Nigger what???
Now, let's be serious here:
Does Chromium really, really
really really
have absolutely none of that botnet Google crap? Is it honestly safe?
I use Chrome, I have nothing to hide. Native Netflix support is awesome.
>>53330530
>he uses shitnux
Spotify or Winamp.
>>53330595
Clicking update is way more convenient than fucking downloading and installing an exe
>>53330301
If you're using a google account google can profile you easily if not they can't there's nothing else to it no matter which browser you're using they don't bother profiling users without an account and they collect metrics from anyone using their services, including the very Google reCAPTCHA you used to post this message
>>53330687
Write a fucking 5 line script you pleb

>>53330617
If you don't use the "sing in to chromium with google account" then yes
Canary is the chrome dev branch primarily now,
they're testing material versions of previous menus in chrome right now, I assume they will be released soon.
>>53330824
>material design in chrome
Fuck yes finally
>>53330617
Yes.
>>53330687
Retard.
>>53330755
You can download Chromium completely without the sync component. It removes that dumb little profile button from the title bar too.
>>53330857
>>53330755
Can't you just turn off the sync function on Chrome? Hell you can even encrypt your sync data.
>>53330530
So what's Google gonna see on my rig, except for straight porn and some docs?
How are they gonna sell that shit to whom?
How exactly does Google make money from spying on you, can you explain to me rationally, step by step, animefag?
>>53330301
Another difference is Chromium does not support the DRM needed for HTML5(so no netflix in Chromium)
>>53330620
>>53330890
Chromium has had those for a while.
>>53330926
>spoonfeed me
No.
>>53330890
Downloads looks the same for me in Chromium 48.
>>53330687
choco upgrade chromium
slap that into a scheduled task.bingo bongo.
>>53330926

>doing nothing worthwhile on your PC
Just tell your mom to sell it
>>53330926
Targeted ads, demographics, X amount of people like Y in region Z so they sell that do local ads so billboards, TV ads, shit you can't just use ad blocker on.
One doesn't have to compile the Chrome in the Gentoo, it's already binary on the packages.gentoo.org.
>>53330960
so did chrome, for atleast 4 months, you just had to enable it
>>53330620
This.
Only retard would do anything private on his PC.
>>53330960
The shut the fuck up, weirdo. Don't think just because you have shit to hide, the same applies to everyone. You just have no argument except for "mah online privacy". As if the internet is a private space. It's not. It's as public as a fucking park.
If you have shit you need to hide, don't put it on a PC which connects to the internet, simple. Or maybe you shouldn't be doing that in the first place.
>>53330986
I don't see any ads, all are blocked.
>demographics
Nowhere on my PC is my age implied.
>billboards
I rarely get out of the house, how can I see the billboards.
>TV ads
I don't watch TV.
Shit, I don't even have GPS or location enabled on my phone, so they can't target anything at me.

I don't really play vidya.
I'm interested in technology, you know, stuff which is not anime, pedo shit, or stuff made by amateurs (linux).
>>53330301
Chromium can't use netflix unless you jump through some annoying hoops.
>>53330755
Chromium has a karaoke function?
>>53330986
Ohhh nooooo I may sometimes see ads that are relevant to my interest. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO11!1

Here is your problem, cuckboi.
>>53330301
Chromium is google chrome without the botnet
>>53330687brew cask install chromium
WOW, THAT WAS LIKE, SO FUCKING HARD
LIKE OH MY FUCKING GOD, IT TOOK ME LIKE 5 BILLION YEARS TO COME UP WITH THAT ONE
HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK

Stable 49 was released on march 2.
>using Chrome or Chromium and not Chromobtanium
>>53330960
Mine does not look like this.
Why?
Why are browsers updated so often anyway?
Are they shipped that buggy? It is not like web standards changes every month.
>>53330485

You should just install Gentoo.

Code optimization, bug fixes, patching security vulnerabilities, implementing new functions...
It used to be different before but Firefox and Opera has the same way of doing it now. I honestly think it's stupid to update the major version number unless there has been significant changes. I'm guessing Firefox and Opera adapted the same thing because most Internet users are very stupid so they would choose Chrome only because it had a higher version number.
