  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 & IF anyone is interested heresa Firefox Fork:- github.com/Alex313031/Mercury/releases ⏎ However itsa out-of-date release (v.122.0.2) versus tha LATEST (v.123) Firefox.
