I've been using it for the last few months, and while it doesn't offer as many "nice to have" features as Google (like automatically finding mask results need in where you are), the core functionality works great, and the lack of ads is refreshing.
Chrome doesn't make any money. How is it supposed to support itself as a separate company?
For most games that's a ridiculous requirement but it makes a lot of sense in this case.
Seemed that way when I was shopping last, but that was over a year ago so I can't cite sources. Supposedly their low mode uses less power and runs faster than Intel's. I can't confirm the faster part but it definitely lasts longer on battery power than any of the Intel laptops I've owned.
Laptop.
I switched to AMD largely for better battery performance, but this mades me feel like I dodged a bullet.

I'm fact you have to not be a MAGA worshipper to be a decent human being. It's a hateful ideology exclusively for hateful people.
Not if you want to use both at the same time. Due example, I've wanted to have a local Gnome session that I leave signed in, and another session with different settings that I remote into.
Chrome and Chromium are 99.9% the same. Source: I used to be a Chrome developer at Google.
