This document covers my personal preferences on settings with Ungoogled Chromium.
|
|
|
|
Luckily, within the Artix repositories, they have a binary of Ungoogled Chromium available for easy installation:
|
|
|
|
doas pacman -S ungoogled-chromium
|
|
|
|
Afterwards which, there are some simple settings and extensions to use to ensure maximum privacy and preferences.
|
|
|
|
I'll leave you to figure out the settings for yourself. Personally I save no cookies, enable HTTPS-only, duckduckgo set to default search engine, amongst other settings.
|
|
|
|
Installing extensions from the google web store is a bit of a hassle, as you have to use an online tool called crxextractor to download the crx, then it's a simple drag and drop into chrome's extensions page.
|
|
|
|
INSTRUCTIONS ON INSTALLING EXTENSIONS:
|
|
|
|
Navigate to the Google Web Store:
|
|
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/extensions
|
|
|
|
Search for the extension you'd like to install
|
|
|
|
Search for the extension you'd like to installation
|
|
|
|
Afterwards which copy the https link above in your address bar using ctrl+c.
|
|
|
|
Open up another tab and head on over to:
|
|
|
|
https://crxextractor.com
|
|
|
|
Enter the link into the prompt at the start of their page. It will then download a .crx file.
|
|
|
|
Open up chromium's settings and then head to the Extensions section.
|
|
|
|
From there you can simply open up a graphical file manager and drag from your Downloads folder, the .crx file into the chromium Extensions page. This will install it (adjust settings per extension per your preferencves).
|
|
|
|
Make sure each extension is allowed in Incognito Mode.

Ungoogled Chromium has already set up most privacy respecting settings by default, but I prefer to add some additional settings:
|
|
|
|
navigate to the chrome flags page, in the url bar, enter:
|
|
|
|
chrome://flags
|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions to get Chromium web store on Ungoogled Chromium:
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/NeverDecaf/chromium-web-store
|
|
|
|
For some reason, using this link will allow downloading of extensions but going through a search won't...
|
|
|
|
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/webrtc-control/fjkmabmdepjfammlpliljpnbhleegehm
|
|
|
|
Here you will be presented with some options, set the following:
|
|
|
|
Disable search engine collection (enabled)
|
|
Show avatar/people/profile button (never)
|
|
Clear data on exit (enabled)
|
|
Hide tab close buttons (enabled)
|
|
Smooth scrolling (enabled)
|
|
Web Bluetooth (disabled)
|
|
Use the new permissions backend for Web Bluetooth (disabled)
|
|
Vulkan (enabled)
|
|
Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents (enabled)
|
|
|
|
Install WebRTC Control on Ungoogled Chromium:
|
|
Use the Chrome Web Store Extension to install WebRTC Control:
|
|
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/webrtc-control/fjkmabmdepjfammlpliljpnbhleegehm
|
|
|
|
And that should do it. Although I still prefer Librewolf (see firefox_notes.txt), this is about as close as I can get it given my current knowledge of "hardening" ungoogled-chromium.
