Yeah, I tried it in 2 different browsers where it didn’t work and then decided to check the comments. I’m not putting Chrome on my machine.

      I'm dissuaded from using Thorium after the news of the developer including... questionable material in their builds[0], and checked into CVS no less. [0]: https://github.com/Alex313031/thorium/issues/147 https://github.com/Alex313031/thorium/issues/147

        Last year's releases (2023) were lagging behind.⏎ Only this yr's releases (2024) are in a timely fashion so far.⏎ However, being forewarned is being forearmed! ⏎ Both (Chromium/Thorium) browsers upstream releases are maintained by Google & both browsers contain various forms of spyware and/or telemetry! ⏎ MOAR:- thorium.rocks ⏎ github.com/Alex313031/Thorium/releases ⏎ On a personal basis I prefer Firefox & Pals over Chromium & FRIENDS!!! ⏎ The last time I was used by Chromium was 7 years ago!!! ⏎ Carpe Deim!

          BTW, The LATEST Thorium release dropped just last week on 20th Feb which just so happened to be its 56th Release / 30th version birthday! & IF anyone is interested heresa Firefox Fork:- github.com/Alex313031/Mercury/releases ⏎ However itsa out-of-date release (v.122.0.2) versus tha LATEST (v.123) Firefox.

      What's missing in Chromium to run the posted project?
      • dylan604 3y ago
        how do you know the difference from a closed source project and an open source project?
        • DANmode 3y ago
          Did you reply to the wrong thread?
          • dylan604 3y ago
            no. am I wrong in thinking that the Chrome source code is not available? Chrome is built on top of Chromium. Chrome != Chromium. So how do you know what the difference between these products are if you can't see it?
