chromium-widevine VS ungoogled-chromium-debian

You need to install chromium-widevine.

git clone https://github.com/proprietary/chromium-widevine.git && \ cd chromium-widevine && \ ./use-from-google-chrome.sh Then restart Chromium

Quite sure it is a drm issue. You can try this

The Widevine library needs to be present as part of the install of your browser that is able to interpret this encrypted video. Chrome, Firefox, Brave, Safari, Edge etc all ship with Widevine pre-installed. But, Chromium builds are not allowed to distribute the Widevine library because of licensing. So, to get around this, we install Chromium and move over the Widevine library from Chrome to Chromium in order to be able to stream these DRM-protected media services.

Having some trouble trying to do this. I've had a lot of problems with flatpak in the past, so I don't want to use that version. The page on GitHub is kind of confusing (https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-debian); 21.1 is based on Jammy, is it not? Any suggestions? (I have a sinking feeling that Mozilla/Firefox will self-destruct one of these days, so I'd like to find an alternative as a backup).

The main issue you might see is that apps you get from custom ppa repos might not be updated for 22.04 (case in point, the debian version of ungoogled chromium, which I had to install as a flatpak).

That's an issue with the unified Debian build. Check out this issue for an alternative build: https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-debian/issues/255

Hi, I'm using Linux Mint XFCE 20.3, and I downloaded ungoogled chromium here: https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-debian. Installed following the instructions on Ubuntu Focal. However upon checking its version, it is 95.0.4638.54. The latest version of chromium in linux mint is 99.0.4844.74. Did I do something wrong, or is the repository outdated?

https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-debian have some instructions to install ungoogled chromium, but I don't know if debian buster is supported though, so goodluck with that

Ungoogled Chromium supports arm64 architecture, installation instructions here

P.S. Your cpu is quite good actually, it is dual core and it even supports SSE3 and 64 bit, for web browser use Ungoogled Chromium as web browser(see the installation instructions here) or get the latest Firefox binaries directly from Mozilla and force enable hardware acceleration(See my installation tutorial here)

Note that it's also possible to use the pre-compiled version of UC, available via apt (adding a source): https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-debian

If you desire to use ungoogled-chromium, please take a look at this.
