Chrome Browser - Blurry Text After Gnome 44.1 Update (under Wayland)
Seems like it's a buggy wayland fractional scalling implementation... It's reverted in the chromium flatpak https://github.com/flathub/org.chromium.Chromium/commit/eea7af903decb3a3b9bb6fdacbb55d24a90e18f3

Canonical releases Ubuntu 23.04 Lunar Lobster
My philosophy has been to let the distro package manager handle system packages (kernel, OpenSSL, etc) but then use flatpak [1] to install user progs like Chromium and VSCode so I get bleeding edge releases and sandboxing.

Some questions from a noob about using Linux
If it helps I'm using https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.chromium.Chromium along with https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal
- How do I install chromium as deb in ubuntu 22.10?
- I'm getting strange font errors in certain Flatpak apps.
- Give specific permission to flatpak Firefox
-
Is starting snaps directly from their installation folder fine when you don't care about sandboxing? (e.g starting chromium snap directly from /snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chrome)
You can inspect how Chromium is built on Flatpak here: https://github.com/flathub/org.chromium.Chromium

Issues with VS CODE on POP OS ( i need help please)
Oh that doesn't work? Hmm I wonder if you could try the executable listed at https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.chromium.Chromium and put that in your config?

Will Google Chrome be fully isolated if I install it through Toolbox?
No need to trust anything, unlike snaps, the way they're distributed is public and open source: https://github.com/flathub/org.chromium.Chromium

Looks like a Up2Date Kernel is in the works!
Would a workaround be installing chromium from flathub, and using that for browsing? https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.chromium.Chromium

Brave's AI assistant now integrates with PDFs and Google Drive
Cromite[0] is the best on Android, it's a privacy-oriented open source patchset on top of Chromium.
Cromite has a desktop build, but it's a bit more experimental than the mobile build, so you can use Ungoogled Chromium[1] instead. Ungoogled is also a privacy-oriented open source patchset on top of Chromium. Check the beta flags to enable some more interesting features like getClientRect anti-fingerprinting measures (unfortunately breaks some React-based sites that go into infinite re-render loop).
Both of these browsers selectively include patches from Brave, but they are community-oriented builds so imo more trustworthy than Brave, which continues to package various shady anti-features and always will because it's backed by a for-profit company.
LibreWolf[2] is the nicest Firefox-based one for desktop, I think. It's pretty hardcore, though, I most only use it to visit mainstream social media sites.
I tried a bunch of the Firefox-based ones on mobile and none of them clicked for me. Cromite is just too slick on Android. Put the address bar at the bottom and off you go. Only downside is no online syncing of tabs and bookmarks, but meh. You can save all open tabs to bookmark bar in one hit then export your bookmarks, send the file through whatever E2EE channel you want to your other device and import then reopen them again.

any working adBlock for YouTube?
Firefox or Ungoogled Chromium (needs to update uBlock manually) in Incognito window with unchanged vanilla uBlock Origin with lists updated and no other plugins and without YouTube account. Works perfectly. Also FreeTube.

Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome
Using these sort of downstream patch set browsers is rarely a good idea. If it has multiple full-time developers from a respected org dedicated to it, then it can be justifiable (Tor Browser, Brave), but take a look at the gaps in time for these two pages:
https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/rel...
https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/c/ch...
There's often days you're going without security patches. If you want a browser without Google tracking, Firefox is a much better choice.

Installing Chrome extension from raw source code
While these screenshots use Google Chrome, they will also work on all 'Chromium' based web browsers, like Brave, Vivaldi, ungoogled-chromium, etc. Window's Edge is also compatible, though some the button locations are changed.

Brave is a fork, not a Chromium reskinn
I would highly recommend the Ungoogled Chromium fork instead: https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium
Entirely volunteer maintained, there is no for-profit entity behind it looking to do crypto referrals or ad swapping or anything like that.
