proposing chromium as default browser (for f25+)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In my prior post, I included chromium in the list of browser candidates.  If 
you're not familiar with it, it is essentially a free version of google 
chrome that recently made it's way into fedora package repositories.

Advantages and features include:
* based on same rendering engine as qtwebengine (that qupzilla uses)
* has active, well-supported upstream
* some kde integration: kde file dialogs, kwallet for secrets
* supports most chrome addons/extensions

Disadvantages include:
* pretty new to fedora (only a few weeks)
* packaging/buildsystem is... messy and fragile (not unique here, 
qtwebengine suffers similarly but less so)
* not 100% native (like qupzilla)
