ThoriumOS VS Thorium-Special

Install my chromiumos release lol its not too heavy on ram https://github.com/Alex313031/ChromiumOS

Also, as far as ChromiumOS, I make my own builds that are "dev" channel, have kernel 5.10, linux firmware, codecs, and extra packages (see readme) https://github.com/Alex313031/ChromiumOS/

I'm not quite sure. I've only seen one video on YouTube about this project. I wouldn't trust it since it's not well known and I haven't seen people dig into the code yet. The latest release of Wayne OS was in September and that means that it doesn't have the most up-to-date features. I would recommend something like Alex313031's ChromiumOS. This guy is well known around the Cloudready Support Forums and has been creating his builds of Chromium OS for a while now. While I would recommend ChromeOS Flex, it's not completely stable yet.

It's okay. We still have open source projects that work like Cloudready since they were built with older builds. This guy has been developing his own version of ChromiumOS with Cloudready builds or something. He has said he will continue development on these builds since Cloudready is being discontinued. link to him talking about it on the Cloudready support forums

(just adding the URL : https://github.com/Alex313031/ChromiumOS/releases ;) ...)

u/MHTMakerspace I would also be willing to make a custom build of chromium for you that may slightly increase memory performance. I also make my own custom browser based on chromium called Thorium as well as ChromiumOS builds with firmare and codecs in case you might be interested. > https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium and releases for windows > https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Win and chromiumos here > https://github.com/Alex313031/ChromiumOS

The current release and this git repo is Win AVX-only: https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Win/releases but there are regular SSE binaries as well as other OS: https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Special/releases

You can find it here : https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Special/releases/tag/M109.0.5361.0

Looks like your CPU doesnt support AVX. Although it is a skylake cpu, sometimes the celeron and pentium series for a given generation will forgoe some instruction set extensions to shrink die space and make it cheaper. So for you, you can use my SSE3 only release here > https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Special/releases/tag/M105.0.5172.0 The sse3 releases for linux and windows get updated less frequently, but otherwise are made to the same standard as other releases, and still contain optimizations that make it faster vs other chromium browsers for a given platform. If you’re curious, i did a l write up here on the site about the optimizations > https://thorium.rocks/optimizations

It’s hard for me to define « fast » for a browser. Does it mean it loads internet pages and content fast? If so, I’d say all browsers I tried are the same, it depends more on your broadband speed and the other apps using it. What I can say is that Safari isn’t the lightest browser. I’m using Thorium Special, a fork of Chromium that’s been compiled and optimized for Apple silicon chips. Even with extensions, it uses around 30% less memory according to the task monitor. It’s just my personal experience.
