I wish Brave/YouTube weren't such a dismal experience on Chromebook. You can't click on the red bar to jump ahead. You can't pause/restart by pressing the space bar. The navigation is awkward and crippled. Same for Firefox. I guess they're all using the same engine.
The only decent browser is Chrome, and the ad blockers don't work anymore.
- paulryanrogers 3y agoDoes Chrome OS allow 3P browsers now? I thought the point was it was all just Chrome? (Unless one bypasses the default restrictions.)
- vorticalbox 3y agoOn later chromebooks you can run Linux apps and android apps. If you need to test in a lot of browsers it's not a terrible idea as you can run both desktop and module browsers.
- yjftsjthsd-h 3y agoChromeOS lets you run Android apps which integrate nicely enough (eg opening links in the app), and also there's the virtual Debian (by default) part that doesn't integrate as well but is more flexible. So yes, you can run other browsers although last I checked it was a little bumpy.
