    Hi
    Now you already know One of the most popular browsers is Google Chrome
    Well i agree google chrome provide best services
    But even so there are things that are annoying about Google Chrome
    1. Greedy for resources (Mostly Ram And Battery)
    2. Greedy For Our Personal Data (Well Google It Self Are Greedy Data Company)

    Ok If You Say
    But We Disable Tracking Option In My Account Center

    Well You Can't Stop Google From Tracking You
    Even You Turn Off Tracking It Doesn't Mean You Are Safe ;)

    Do You Remember Google Terrible Track Record?
    -Google Still Can Track Your Location Even You Already Turn These Feature Off On Google Account Center

    Conclusion:
    Well Google Chrome (And Other Google App's) Is the best
    But They Also Annoying Because Of These Mentioned Things ;)
    (Oh Yes? Threatening Our Privacy As Well)

    With Google doing these activities, they clearly threaten our privacy so yeah Know yourself and you can judge for yourself

    What Do You Think?

    Hey,
    the question should be asked differently: "Why all Chromium based programs uses your storage for their needs, and they don't want to delete the cache when the program closing?"

    Because not only the Chrome is based on Chromiun, sample list for Windows (because I can't found similar list for Android): Amazon Silk, Avast Secure Browser, Beaker, Blisk, Brave, CodeWeavers CrossOver, Comodo Dragon, Cốc Cốc, Discord, Epic Browser, Falkon, Microsoft Edge, Naver Whale, Opera, Qihoo 360 Secure Browser, SalamWeb, Samsung Internet, Sleipnir, Slimjet, SRWare, Torch, Vivaldi, Yandex browser.

    Also, when all the above programs uses this same base, why this base can't be installed once, and you must install separate for all of above programs? This same comes to Android.

    Try install all of the above browsers on Windows, and after installing check the free space. ;-)

    And yes, the Google Chrome is "the best", because most webmasters write the websites for Chromium, like before they wrote them for IE 6 in the XP times. So, the browser "is the best" if you "promote" it enough, like a force install Google Chrome in some(/most) free programs to get a bit of money.

    P.S.

    Hi @wilenty
    Applications must store temporary cache And not to delete it automatically is not a problem (we can delete it using manual method) It just piles up so fast causing storage Filled up fast *FacePalm*
    Ok just compare it


    Ungoogled chromium vs google chrome

    But i also agree for this:
    But we still can prevent this by looking for "FOSS" Alternative
    Ah usually FOSS product are respect our freedom and privacy and you can pay them with contribution or donation Right? @wilenty

    Best Regards

    To me, Gluegow Chrome is the worst, especially on the desktop.
    Not only because it's spyware and bloatware, but mainly because it is exceedingly idiot-friendly...
    On my cheap smartphone I uninstalled /disabled nearly-all-apps produced by google :angel_not:
    It's good to know the infamous Play Store thinks that I have no ""devices"" :-D
    I installed Opera, even though I rarely surf on the web through the smartphone,
    only because the Samsung browser is almost as sucky as Chrome and cannot be disabled /uninstalled at all
    (not without rooting, at least /AFAIK).

    I gave up on using the Chrome browser and using Google search a long, long time ago. Neither is worth using.

    Search for Iron browser, install and set DDG as your Search Engine. Now you have "chrome" browser which does not send data to Google...
