Google Hates Edge Chromium. Will it now block access to extension store?
12 points by vizually 1882 days ago
After every PC restart there is a fight for the default browser status between Edge Chromium and Chrome. New Chrome apps could not be installed in Edge for a few days. Today I discovered that edge chromium now blocks access to pre-existing installed apps such as remote desktop. They were working until today. They have closed even that loophole.

Switch to Firefox.
My principles are not worth actively sacrificing my security. https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/firefox-chromium.ht...
Or Brave if you must use Chromium.

(Although I have to admit I'm still using Chrome for some reason... hard habit to break I guess.)

the only features i miss is seamless translation (the extension is unreliable and less convenient) and no reverse image search (because of ddg selected as the main search engine)

other than that, brave + keepass replace chrome just fine for me, I don't really see a reason not to make the switch

Do you know a way to download the old Firefox extensions - I don's see them neither.
What haven’t been ported in the I don’t know how many years, will never be. Check out whether it has what you want.
