Chromium browser issues

General Discussion

Hi I’m noticing some issues with Chromium based browsers.

  1. Sporadically it takes a very long time to start the application or to go to a webpage when clicking a URL
  2. None of them will remember log in sessions after closing the browser.

I’ve tried Chromium and ungoogled-chromium from the repo as well as Chrome from Flatpak-beta.

Also tried to manually set up seahorse as the none of the browsers would trigger the keyring prompts.

Any help on this?

2

Which repo? There’s no Chromium from swupd.

Sorry I was confused. It was Flatpak. I was confusing with a Void Linux installation.

Have you consulted the Flatpak community? The second point sounds like an inherent issue with the Flatpak package, instead of an issue of the host OS.

Thanks for the help/suggestions. I decided to stick with Firefox since gregor’s ffmpeg installation works to fix it’s issues (the main reason I even wanted chrome/chromium).
