draft - ChromeOS - Re: GUI installation of .deb packages has been deprecated.

A - so, is it "good" for "them" or "us" or "business" or what. Is it almost trying to make it feel like that sort of "no side loading" type of feeling? Or force people to use the terminal or. Or make it so "dummies" don't install bad things by accident or something? Or is it none of the above or some of the above or we just don't know? Hm. I wonder. bc it was kinda nice having the gui installation capability and this feels like a downgrade. Hm. But even if it is some of the above, and have them force users to the terminal for *initial installation* it doesn't make sense to force users to the terminal for *software updates* as software updates include security stuff that would be beneficial for all users even "dummies" or whatever. Like, sure, maybe the initial installation should require terminal, but the UI should support software updates via the gui.

draft - People - chromeos requires 8gb ram. I don't care if there's a bunch of 4gb ram devices. If you please vote a little bit with your wallet and get at least 8gb ram, and at least a core i3 / ryzen3, it's gonna be better.

Vote with your wallet. stop buying 4gb ram Chromebooks.

Chromebooks with 8gb ram Intel core i3 / amd ryzen3 or higher please. ..

Essentially, Chromebook plus is kinda required to have a good time on chromeos.

Let's rid the market of 4gb ram chromeos devices by just ignoring them completely. They're not worth it unless you get them for $40 bucks.

8gb ram core i3 Chromebook plus is more worth $250 for a good sale of $350 MSRP Chromebook plus

any other fans of this extension?

no import required - uses your existing chrome bookmarks, but with a nice full screen grid view of browser bookmarks with favicons automatically applied - makes nice internet launcher, including 3x3 app folders, similar to iOS / android home screen. Supports drag and drop. changes are synced to Google cloud since its a launcher gui for your existing bookmarks

Uses doc mode layout (left to right, top to bottom) for anyone familiar with the physics of the iPad / iPhone home screen

what do you think?

It's called Favorites New Tab Page

draft - on chromeos in the play store, the opera browser is a full desktop style browser when you download it from chromeos.

firefox and other browsers should do the same.

give us a full desktop level browser, or at least the option to do so when downloading from a chromebook via the play store
