I have very few issues with it, but desu, I'd considered switching again. It's too bad Edge doesn't have extensions yet. I wanted to switch to Edge way back.

Give Iridium a shot, it's based on Chromium but it doesn't send shit back to Google, and it's portable by default so if you don't like it you can just delete the whole folder and be done with it.

That's just an in-joke on /g/ for anything that infringes privacy or property.

Chrome collects information from it's users.
Not quite on the level of spyware, but it collects more then google search engine cookie does.

Chromium doesn't do that, but it's also missing a few features.
Most notably flash and .pdf support.

>mfw used torch years ago when I was an edgy 16 year old who torrented every game that looked interesting to try running them on my shitty laptop
I still have the laptop, it's dead though, I took out the screen, ram, network card and hdd. Sold the screen and ram, haven't been able to sell the network card and the hdd somehow made my pc crash when I plugged it in while it was on, if I plug it in before boot, the pc stays at the os's loading screen until I reboot with the hdd removed.

Usually "years ago" refers to a longer span of time, even if that is technically correct.
