  • Electron

    :electron: Build cross-platform desktop apps with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS

    • I have found a similar issue reported on GitHub and also in Chromium bugtracker however with no solution how to fix this.

  • river

    [mirror] A dynamic tiling Wayland compositor (by riverwm)

    • River crashed everytime I closed Chromium. The developer fixed it in 5 minutes :)

    • Unfortunately the flags you suggested didn't help. But thanks to your suggestion from the previous reply ("The issue probably depends on the compositor you're using."), I searched for some Gnome specific issues and found this one, which mentions --in-process-gpu flag. This flag seems to fix the issues I had :)

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
