An open-source web browser

Chromium is the open-source version of the vastly popular Google Chrome. It features the development build that they use to continue to update the latest versions of the web. While it is different, it remains similar to the regular Chrome.

User Interface

Chromium is quite similar to Chrome as they are based on Chromium OS. It features the all-in-one tab that has the setting and bookmarks. There is no scrolling mechanism for when you open up too many tabs, making it difficult to switch between them when you have many open.

Features

The main characteristic Chromium comes with is the ability to have all your Google account information synchronised with it. The software is ideal for people who are developing websites or who want to develop extensions, as they can make the most of the dev build.

It also comes with the ability to use a wide variety of extensions to make the user’s life easier. Google Translate comes pre-loaded into the browser. It is safe and has no viruses.

Problems

The main issue with it is the lack of updates. You will have to ensure that your version remains up to date. Finding these upgrades can be a hassle because there are a variety of versions on the internet.

While the browser is one of the fastest, it consumes a lot of RAM. This problem worsens if you keep a lot of tabs open.

Alternatives

Google Chrome is the first competitor as it’s almost identical. If you do not need an open-source program, there is no reason to use Chromium over Chrome as it is inferior to the official release in most aspects.

Firefox is another great option. It doesn’t feature the same ease of use, but it is much more concerned with your security. If you are worried about having your data stolen or desire a programme that consumes less RAM, Mozilla Firefox is for you.

Not necessary

Overall, Chromium does not add any value beyond what Chrome already has, making it inferior. It just comes with a variety of complications that won’t give you any added benefits in personal use. In conclusion, it is identical to Google’s browser but with the experimental build component. It is not a necessity to have.
