Well, it's the same thing: you can install any browser from Microsoft's Store on Windows 10 S. So, Google will either have to release Chrome targeted for Windows platform (same way Firefox did on Android) or not be available to Wi

That's essentially the same thing that Google is doing on Chrome OS and Apple on iOS. There's absolutely no difference between it. I highly doubt that Google will sue them for doing the same thing they're doing on the same ma

Regardless, this shouldn't be possible. Chrome is supposed to tie them with the single instance you're running. You can't just copy the Chrome folder and transfer it to another location. You'd have to use Chrome's S

Hmmm... can't figure out a way to remove tips from the right sidebar. Any ideas? Other than that, this seems like a great mashup between Markdown and Vim. I'm leaning towards the Markdown side of things, but can definitely see mys

Not from Poland and not in an any way affected country, but I believe I can answer your first question, and it comes down to basically Rossiya Segodnya. Here's an investigation that discovered them operating in the Baltics: https:

I agree with you on one hand that a browser shouldn't mess with the layout, but it could provide an alternative layout of the content (kind of like the reader mode does) in the click of a button, and I'll be more than happy to use

This affected every single Chromium app I had installed. Signal is just one of them, which was easiest to spot. Pocket, Kindle Cloud Reader, Duolingo, and Floating for YouTube are also gone.

I didn't, just wanted to try it out. Now I'm kind of stuck where I have to use Chromium + Chrome apps, which is definitely not the end result I was hoping for.

Also, Mozilla's Readability library[0] should help you out to extract only relevant content (this is what's behind Firefox's reading mode). So, the only semi-difficult part is the NLP. [0] https://github.com/m

There is one project[0] that accomplishes the same thing, but instead of searching for the titles, it searches for the links to online stores (like Amazon) and then checks if the links are indeed books or not. Might be relevant to you. [0]
