Chromium Browser Vs Google Chrome

[Michael Butash]

I've gotten to the point I can't use chromium anymore - it simply 
doesn't work with most scripted websites I hit.  I tend to run a lot of 
plugins, but oddly if I import the same profile, that sucks in all the 
same extensions, chrome works on sites chromium simply does not.  This 
has lead me to believe that either something relative to chromium is 
borked.  Seemingly updating it only makes things get worse

Oddly, most of the time when I have these issues, later realizing it's 
something related to chome/chromium, I'll pull out firefox, and it'll 
work perfectly with more or less the same methods of plugins I've used 
for probably 5 years (notscript, adblock plus, ghostery).

Using them without isn't really an option for me, first flashing add or 
modal in-frame popup and I'm instantly nauseated to close the browser or 
load vermin-blocking extensions asap.

I stopped using Firefox when Chrome came on the scene and was 20x 
faster, but seems now that they thread to individual memory spaces, it 
seems fairly comparable in performance, without the grief 
chrome|chromium are bringing me these days.  I've just gone back to 
using Firefox more of late...
