Public bug reported:

Chromium - 127.0.6533.119

wayland

Chromium app ignores large text setting 
There is no top bar named New Tab - chromuim


-------------------------------------------------------------
xorg
There is top bar named New Tab - chromuim
There is a bug "Chromium opens, but still loads within 15 seconds after opening"

-------------------------------------------------------------

What needs to be done:
1)Remove top bar in xorg session.
The flatpak or aur version does not have this top bar. It should not be in any 
session. Moreover, Google Chrome deb version comes without a top bar.

2)Chromium app should not ignore large text setting in ubuntu in wayland
session

3)Chromium opens, but still loads within 15 seconds after opening

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/2070889

It seems someone has created a custom patch for the Wayland session within the 
Snap format. Chromium now launches directly into the Wayland session without 
any delay.
As seen in the upstream bug, no one seems to know why this is happening or is 
willing to address it. In other words, Google doesn't seem to prioritize Linux 
development.
We need to figure out what this patch does, how to integrate it into the xorg 
session, and who can merge it into the upstream repository. This is a serious 
issue affecting all GNOME-based and chromium-based browser distributions and 
their forks, and it's being ignored.
