Good bye Coli(2014-2020)
Chrome is the most top notch broswer. Being integrated with Google is its BEST selling point in my opinion. Would of the features I value with Chrome is image searching, copy the direct image link and word searching. But thats just the main things out of MANY others.

Yeah, I have some problems with Chrome sometimes with it being slow but the pros outweigh the cons by a large margin.

IE is just :gag::gag::gag::gag::gag::gag: and still as of yet in 2017 has not improved or at least have the important features that Chrome have. No one gives a shyt about Cortana.

IF repeat IF Google's OS takes off then its game over for MS. They already lost the mobile market.

Chromium still has deep Google tied code.

Even connects on launch according to the net internals page.
I figured it did, I don't trust much that Google has its hands on.
That said I only use chromium because that is all that is offered on linux and its the only browser I can use that reliably runs citrix meet

No browser is truly "private."

Chrome has the incognito feature though.:ehh:
yes so does firefox , and uses less memory. chrome even in incognito mode sends your data to google, even if you have a vpn it leaks your ip via a couple of different ways. you have to tweak it to stop it from leaking your ip, but still sends your info to google. so again my personal computer does not have chrome or any google apps. I value My privacy. And yes no browser is truly private but chrome is basically public.

if you truly value your privacy it's probably best to stay off the internet. Especially message boards

That almost seems counterproductive.

I have download and add more memory, scripted by who knows for what reason, in order to prevent the browser to from crashing?

That was the point of a new browser in the first place, something that did not have bloatware scripted and made for a better user experience.
