I imagine there's some difference between them if he's packaging both.

I think I'll take a second look, but I'm thinking ("googled") Chromium and Google Chrome still would have different levels of Google integration (Googlization, if you will). For instance, last time I checked, Google Account integration was not working with Alien's (googled) Chromium packages; as I understand, this was due to Google's muzzling of unofficial Chromium packages as of 15 March 2021; see https://alien.slackbook.org/blog/google-muzzles-all-chromium-browsers-on-15-march-2021/ ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/

Not so; the google-chrome SlackBuild in /extra simply takes the dpkg that you must manually download from the official Google servers, and converts that into a Slackware tgz package that matches the version of the dpkg downloaded. > Eric (alienBOB) is on Slackware team, so one can trust his newer > versions with fixes. These are very high-quality packages as well, but they are de-googled. This may be against the grain around these parts, but for me, half the reason I *do* use Chrome is to get the Google Account integration. ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/

If you want to continue to use chromium, Alien Bob keeps chromium packages and his SlackBuild available on his repo. Yes, and he has an ungoogled-chromium, too. If you are fine with regular chrome, as already mentioned, Pat makes his SlackBuild for it available in extra/, or ruario has his excellent latest-chrome SlackBuild. I've used chromium on my 14.2 desktop since that firefox version is not supported by some web sites, mostly financial. I've avoided chrome. I'll use the brave browser rather than chromium on 15.0.

Yes, but that's now significantly old, after maybe security issue(s) found/fixed. Eric (alienBOB) is on Slackware team, so one can trust his newer versions with fixes.

google-chrome is in 15.0 extra, as it was in Curent. Cheers ... Duncan.
