  • thorium

    Chromium fork named after radioactive element No. 90. Windows and MacOS/Raspi/Android/Special builds are in different repositories, links are towards the top of the README.md.

  • I found the original commit [1] since the other Github link in the thread shows the removal. I'm not entirely sure what the process was around adding to begin with

  • Coincidentally, jwz does/did the same thing (nonconsensual porn harassment for I don't know what reasons [0]), and he was one of the original developers of Mozilla.

    (This isn't supposed to be a fun fact. All of this sucks).

  • codium

    VSCodium Fork with Compiler Optimizations, better Logo, and Windows 7/8/8.1 Support!

  • Seems they're really into "windows 7-ing" all the things <https://thorium.rocks/win7>, hacking^W Optimizing!!1 Firefox and VSCodium, too

    and FWIW I despise the thinking that leads one to commit ever-changing binary artifacts into git because then $(git clone) turns into a DVD sized download https://github.com/Alex313031/codium/commit/5bd47c17194e8019...

  • thorium-legacy
