So there are a couple others you can try;<br><br>- Vivaldi - seems very configurable, not sure what it's built on.<br>- Brave - Eich's new browser. Blocks ads that track you and slow down page loading and substitutes "better" - non-tracking ads. I have not tried.<br>- servo - new from moz, coded in rust to take advantage of concurrency - also have not tried, see <a href="http://servo.org">servo.org</a><br><br>I still use Lynx on occasion, and Midori occasionally .<br><br>Good Luck,<br>Zach<br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Tue, Feb 16, 2016 at 6:48 PM Rick Troth <<a href="mailto:rmt@casita.net">rmt@casita.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On 02/16/2016 06:32 PM, Joshua Kramer wrote:<br>

Never really differentiated until you asked, so ... thanks!<br>
<br>
Wikipedia (the sum of all human knowledge) indicates that Chromium is<br>
the open source project spun from Chrome. (And presumably now Chrome<br>
then feeds Chromium? I mean that in a good way, like SUSE "feeding on"<br>
OpenSUSE or RHEL on Fedora.)<br>
<br>
The Wikipedia page says that Chromium does not have the RLZ tracking or<br>
the auto-update.<br>
So on that point, NO, Chromium does not have "all" of the bad habits<br>
Chrome does.<br>
Now that I know there is a difference, I will try Chromium.<br>
<br>
My usual disclaimer about Google: I use them ... heavily. I do not trust<br>
them. And lately, I trust them less and less.<br>
