    I’m being downvoted heavily on Reddit for suggesting thorium instead of Chrome.

    My guess is bots as thorium is way faster and the dev hates the thought of a chromium browser without Adblock.

    Moronically I think the Reddit hive mind is following that opinion and I may have to delete the comment or face site wide blacklisting which is what usually happens.

        First I’ve heard of it honestly, I’m in the weird position I don’t really trust Google or Mozilla so all I’m using is forks.

        If those go ad crazy I’m kinda screwed.

        Kinda agree it should have an update built in, I’m using Chris Titus’s update script to update it Which to be honest doesn’t seem to update it much.

        I’m mostly basing my use on it being quite fast and the dev cursing out Google and swearing to keep Ublock.
