But what if it was open source???
Chromium is. Chrome is not
Well your first mistake was using Chrome in 2026
Second Mistake was using Windows in 2026
id say this is the first mistake really
I hate that I still have to use Chrome because it can do some streaming stuff better than Firefox (and even Chromium for some reason). I only use it to connect to one KVM.
Do the streaming issues resolve themselves ✨magically✨ when faking the user agent to be Chrome for those streaming sites, e.g. using Firefox and a user agent add-on?
Software updates have gotten so fucked up in general these days.
It's so rare that changelogs are published to actually educate the end user about what an update will do. Most of the time it's just "Bug fixes and feature updates" with no further detail. What bugs? What features? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Then you update (or, more likely, you left auto-update on) because they guilt you into thinking that you'll immediately fall victim to a zero-day vulnerability if you don't. And suddenly everything just gets slightly worse and worse.
It should be more accepted to follow the mentality of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" with software, precluding the need to install new updates unless something stops working or there is a vulnerability to patch. On my phone at least, I have auto updates turned off and will generally let audience consensus determine if it's something I want. But it's still a coin toss if I decide to take an update, because no one bothers to tell you what they really do anymore.
Fun fact: when releasing apps on Google Play, you are basically forced to give a proper summary about what the update contains and Google threatens your developer account if you fail to do so. If you want some sour chuckles, check the "what's new" of YouTube or Google Play itself.
It's so rare that changelogs are published to actually educate the end user about what an update will do.
This reminds me - One of the games I play did an update called "Nothing update" and it just simply said "Nothing was updated, no need to investigate".

This is not a "leopards ate my face" situation.
