How well is Chromium supported on Debian?
I like it as a secondary browser for its excellent support of multiple profiles but I run Ubuntu and had to switch to Chrome because Chromium doesn't seem to be updated promptly.
- hansjorg 9y agoYou should check out the new contextual containers feature in Firefox if you haven't. Both more convenient and more powerful than profiles. As someone commented elsewhere in this thread, you can get FF version 52 in the security repo of Stretch, even if the default browser is Firefox ESR. https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/containers/ https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/containers/
- blfr 9y agoInteresting. Does it also allow different settings/addons per each profile?
- hansjorg 9y agoI don't think so, but some addons support per container settings. For example Cookie AutoDelete where each defined container can have its own whitelist: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autode...

- vbernat 9y agoChromium has an exception to always keep it up-to-date with the latest version. In Jessie, it was updated in the same week as for unstable.
