Chromium cannot sign in (to Google) anymore to sync.

I would just like to know, why does google hate secure systems?

    @NoMad IIRC they did that some time ago since supposedly third-party browsers based on Chromium allowed usage of Chrome Sync which wasn't supposed to be the case for anything but Chrome itself, and there was a version of Chrome for Linux for a while already, but hey, I'm very slowly migrating away from Google services anyway and use Firefox currently (despite its own issues, for the moment I at least want something usable that isn't based on the Chromium engine)

    @chilledfrogs I use them both. But for document sharing and casting, I need the damn chrome bullshit.

    @NoMad For casting I feel you although I might recommend Mkchromecast: https://mkchromecast.com/
    For document sharing, what do you mean? 😅

    @chilledfrogs I can't remember fully, but there was something about google docs that didn't work too well in firefox. (My info is old tho)

    @NoMad I never had issues with Google Docs in Firefox in the past 2 years or so, but there were issues before

    @Frederick they should remove it though, what's the use of a metric you can't observe, it's as if you went to your doctor they found you have cancer but they can only show you how many others didn't have it

    Thanks for mentioning the "Return YouTube Dislike" extension - not sure why it is in the fun category though...
