I've recently switched from Ubuntu to a Mac (mainly just to learn wtf everyone says is so great), I'd been running Chromium there for ages, I'd prefer to use Chromium rather than give so much data to Google but I could find a package which will update like Chromium did on Ubuntu. Any suggestions?
- blasdel 17y agoGoogle's official Chrome builds update themselves automatically while they're running without needing to relaunch. The Mac Developer community has standardized on Sparkle, where the app downloads an update feed from the developer's site and prompts for an automatic update/install/relaunch. To get the Chromium on Ubuntu behavior of manually-initiated centralized automatic updates, you'd have to use a package manager and the only viable one is MacPorts, which is just not a good fit for desktop software.
