Just did a quick look...

Need to use Chrome for work (No, UserAgentString changes don't work for whatever fingerprinting nonsense they use). Trying to preempt this issue. Apparently when it downloads, it downloads into a folder called

~/.config/google-chrome/Default/OptGuideOnDeviceModel/

OptGuideOnDeviceModel directory doesn't exist yet.

I created it, made root the owner, and removed all its write permissions. Ought to do it.

Solution: stop using chrome.

Who is still using chrome nowadays? You can't use ublock

[–] PearOfJudes@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

Chromium is all I can install GrapheneOS on. Chromium has its uses, pretty sure it's opensource? And there are privacy friendly chromium browsers like a debloated brave.

Lots of people who aren't as sensitive as we are to capitalist propaganda (advertising) being constantly flung into our faces 🤮

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 22 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Ads send me into a fit of rage now. I will sustain a scream at the top of my lungs just to drowned out the audio if I have to. I'm so done.

Every New Years Eve, I spend about 15 minutes watching network television with my parents while the Times Square ball drops, and I literally ask them every time "how the fuck do you live like this?"

[–] ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 54 minutes ago* (last edited 51 minutes ago)

I spend the first 15 minutes of every new year sending texts to all my family and friends in Wisconsin telling them to get registered on myvote.wi.gov for their absentee ballots for the year because we have to renew every single year and its my resolution to bug everyone about it until they send me “i voted” stickers (or excuses for why they haven't a sticker but have voted) in the spring election which is days from my birthday.

Nobody buys me a gift, they send me pictures of stickers. Civic participation is my requested gift. Spring elections are shit for turnout.

according to this https://radar.cloudflare.com/reports/browser-market-share-2025-q4

65% of people

if you include edge 72% of people

next in line is safari at 16% and firefox just ahead of samsung internet at 3%

The Lite version still works fine.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 3 points 6 hours ago

That is not really that great

[–] BigBrownDog@lemmy.world 28 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

The best part about chrome is that you don't have to have it

[–] yucandu@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

None of the browser based COM port uploader tools work on Firefox yet. Like the WLED installer or the ESP32 flash tools.

[–] BigBrownDog@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

I have no idea what any of that means

[–] anonfopyapper@lemmy.world 14 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

Unless....

You have to use a website that is absolutely necessary for your job or government paperwork, that only works on chromium browsers (and ungoogled chromium doesn't help)

I was just about to be like, "that's crazy, I've never hsd that happen" And then I remember having to do a online test on Chrome instead of Ungoolged Chromium because the anti-cheat extension refused to work...

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 1 points 5 hours ago

Renewing my car's registration in my state won't even work in Chrome for me. Same goes for Firefox, which I my current preferred browser. I have to use Edge. :|

Although that may be due to the extensions I had running.

Some people should be around soon to tell you how terrible Brave is.

[–] macaw_dean_settle@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

Why would you ever use chrome? It has always sucked.

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)
[–] beep@piefed.world 8 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

...Remove it.

Install Helium browser, Ungoogled Chromium, Firefox or even Brave.

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 5 points 5 hours ago

Mmm, Brave is a little sketch IIRC.
