<p>Microsoft is a company which mainly develops, and sells software
which is their product.<br>
</p>
<p>Google (now Alphabet) is an advertising company which sells
advertising, and their product is you.</p>
<p>By giving out all those free goodies, they are able to provide
better targeted advertising from all the information they collect
on you. While there are differences in Chrome and Chromium, Google
still runs the open source project, controls it, and it still
needs resources from Google to run properly (such as fonts).</p>
<p>Since Satya Nadella became CEO of Microsoft, they have been
dropping the ball on a lot of things rather than taking the time
to try to figure what people want in some of their projects, they
just stop working on it.<br>
</p>
<p>If you want to still run Chromium, the dependencies should still
be available to download and compile on ARM. During the compile
process , any dependencies needed should come up as an error in
the command prompt if you cannot find a list of all of them.</p>

<p>Glad you found Firefox. It should be a good choice for now.<br>

<div>I tried to compile chromium but I get stuck at the
dependencies based on how they recommend compilation, see: <a

I am not sure how fedora builds it but it magically exists.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As to weston, I do admit that I have not attempted to
compile it albeit it seems the world is going to wayland and
weston is the reference implementation. Since X exists why
not weston.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As to politics I'll stay out of it but I believe there is a
difference between chrome and chromium. I believe microsoft
is possibly competitor to google. Nonetheless, in your honor
I just checked and saw firefox exists so I will give that a
try.</div>

<p>You can download the source code of those applications,
compile them, and run them on your ARM device.</p>
<p>With that, how about a little on politics?</p>
<p>How about *NO* for including Chromium?</p>
<p>Reason is, a lot of people now, for some reason, using
Chrome based browsers despite being resource hogs, and
data collectors for Google. Just recently, Microsoft
announced they are giving up on their own browser web
engine, and going to start putting Chrome's Blink web
engine in Edge browser. <br>
</p>
<p>This sets a dangerous precedent. This would give Google
more even more control over the Internet in setting the
standards, and data collection on everyone. There are
already web standards as set up by W3C which will
probably be ignored in the near future if things keep
going the way they are.<br>

<div>What are the chances of getting chromium and
