The idea that end-users of Ubuntu have to install special repos with labels like 'unstable' in order to be safe when Windows and Mac users get stable yet safe releases weeks ahead means normal, usual, average Ubuntu users are less safe than other platforms. Ick.
- ZeroGravitas 15y agoI'm not sure you're following his point. Chromium for Ubuntu isn't really a Ubuntu/Canonical or Google project. If you want Google's Chrome, you can have it. You don't need to use an 'unstable', beta or dev repo to get it (though you have that choice if you want more up-to-date features). And (I assume) it gets updated in sync with Windows and Mac.
