I never use Google Chrome. I got off brands of Chromium, and I even got basic Chromium itself. I will never use actual Google Chrome. But it looks like I may have to invest in a different email address as I will likely dump GMail soon.

Thanks for the post Ransomnote.

Chromium per se still is Google-centric. It’s essentially Chrome with all the non-Open Source stuff removed. But (IIRC) it still has lots of built-in links to Google’s on-line services including Gmail, Play Store etc.

There is, I believe, a fork called de-Googled Chromium, but I haven’t looked into it, as I much prefer Firefox ESR for general use.

P.S. For watching commercial streaming video I run Chrome on a separate computer (on a separate LAN), since such video is usually encrypted, and Chrome is least likely to have difficulty (given its market share).
