Chromium, alternative Linux à Chrome

Notre avis
Chromium is a solid replacement for Chrome on Linux, especially for users who prioritize open-source software and want to avoid Google's telemetry and forced account integration. It offers the same core browsing experience, including fast rendering, strong JavaScript performance, and full support for Chrome Web Store extensions. If you rely on Google services less heavily and value privacy or software freedom, Chromium is a capable, drop-in alternative. However, power users needing media codecs or automatic updates may need to adjust.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Chrome
Chromium can open Chrome bookmarks, history, and cookies directly since both share the same profile structure. You can import Chrome data by pointing Chromium to your existing Chrome profile directory (~/.config/google-chrome). However, encrypted passwords may not transfer if Chrome uses system keyring integration. Exporting bookmarks to HTML works flawlessly in both directions. Session and extension data are compatible, making migration straightforward for most users.
Passer de Chrome à Chromium, étape par étape
- Install Chromium via your distro's package manager or Flathub
- Close Chrome and back up ~/.config/google-chrome if needed
- Copy profile data to ~/.config/chromium or let Chromium import on first run
- Reinstall extensions from Chrome Web Store
- Enable desired flags and disable unwanted features in chrome://flags
