why would i install chromium and not chrome?
>>55547846
I don't know. You tell me.
They're both botnets. Chromium is just Chrome without the official branding.
>>55548048
Also without some video codecs, auto update and some other things that non autists want.
>>55547846
Chrome is for retards
Chromium is for autists
Pick your poison.
>>55548048
What the kind of information they track?
>>55548134
Not much. Just everything you do inside the browser.
>>55547846
I don't see a difference...
Some claim it being 8911651x times faster while it's the same fucking shit.
>>55548048
So other than Firefox, what alternatives should I look into?
>>55548415
Pale Moon or Iridium.
>>55548553
I stopped using Pale Moon, it became shit in my opinion.

>without video codecs
If you mean inability to play protected media, install chromium-widevine
>auto-update
Sucks being on Windows, doesn't it?
>non-autists
Pot, kettle, black.
It's the same difference between android and aosp.

Chrome is the best botnet browser, why would I use another one?

Chrome is for stable faggots who don't want buggy shit
Chromium is for >muh freedom faggots who want buggy, pre-alpha builds
>>55549772
>proprietary
>willingly giving your privacy to the botnet
>>55551241
Ignorant faggot.
>>55547846
chromium is open source so anyone can add malicious code to the installer file
chrome is proprietary and developed by google so i'm pretty sure that they will not ship it with malware because only them can add code to it
>>55547846
One is in the repositories and the other isn't. As simple as that. I couldn't give less than a shit about their differences. Chromium does its job.
>>55547846
Because you read something about privacy, open source and stopped reading at "Chromium"
I switched from Chrome to chromium to palemoon to ff nightly. No regrets. Love nightly

Everything that Chrome/Chromium does Opera does it better. But Vivaldi is a good option too if you like a more personalized UI
Chromium is just the lightweight Chrome, without shit like the PDF viewer. Both are far superior to any other browser I have used

If you wanna get more than two dicks in your mouth. That's what you mean probably.
>>55547846
I am the only retard that uses Firefox unironically because I think text rending looks better on Windows 10 than Chrome?
>>55548075
What are you talking about? pacman -Syu auto updates it ;)
>>55558909
Does it import autofill data and passwords?
>>55555842
then the question is- do you trust repository managers hosting chromium install files, or do you trust google and whatever "botnet" proprietary code they put into chrome?
>>55558909
Only problem is Opera is owned by chinks now. Basically it comes down to if you want chinks or google harvesting your data.

Are you retarded?
>>55549798
>Sucks being on Windows, doesn't it?
Actually no, I get to work in an actual industry because I have real software and not shit FOSS knock offs.
>>55547846
it's slightly less of a botnet
Hi
>>55561242
>real software
I bet you mean Microsoft Office.

Fuck off with your /v/ browser
is it possible to invert scrolling with two fingers in chrome?
>>55561642
What's wrong with it?
>>55561653
Slow as fuck, closed source and replaceable by Chromium
Shit I I'm sticking to my chrome for now and searching every once in a while for CP.avi that is an hour long Rickroll.
Install Firefox Nightly
Sticking with chrome because netflix wont work properly with any othe browser.
Unlike stallman I dont get tantrums over eather chrome or netflix.
>>55548075
Chromium for Linux is updated through the package manager.
>>55549772
Just installed it after I read your post.
Loving it so far looks real sleek and the settings menu is nice.
>>55547846
Inox or Iridium, which one is better and why?
they are the exact same thing, both are controlled by google
the only difference is that chromium is in the developer channel by default
>>55555842
>chromium is open source so anyone can add malicious code to the installer file
that's not how it works. anything that gets added to an open source project gets reviewed by other contributors. if anything, chrome is less trustworthy because closed source means they could sneak in whatever they want with no outside review.

He could mean every software companies use to produce stuff you complete fuckin retard who was obviously dropped on the floor by his mom.
