Remove google services like ungoogled chromium #90

Closed LJGJM closed 8 months ago

LJGJM commented 8 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm always frustrated with google services in my browser. It takes up extra storage. I would like to remove all google telemetry (even chrome webstore) and add https://github.com/NeverDecaf/chromium-web-store/releases/tag/v1.5.4 this to decrease telemetry

Describe the solution you'd like, including relevant patches or source I would like Thorium to create a version named ungoogled thorium by using this https://github.com/NeverDecaf/chromium-web-store/releases/tag/v1.5.4 and this https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-windows. I would be happy to test them!

Additional Notes P.S: Here are some things i would like the ability to remove (its ok if you cant) image

Just a reminder, im happy to test! Just please keep as much optimizations possible, helps many low end pcs!

In order to maintain a better experience, thorium does not adopt the ungoogled mode, but your suggestions are still very much appreciated.

LJGJM commented 8 months ago

Ok, is there any way i can ungoogle it? You can also make 2 versions of Thorium, one is ungoogled and one isn't. I understand why if you cant

gz83 commented 8 months ago

We currently have no plans to maintain ungoogled thorium

Ok, but can you list all of the optimisations of thorium? i will try to compile an ungoogled version. Thanks

Thanks

Will it be easier to recompile ungoogled chromium with thorium optimisations or recompile thorium with ungoogled

gz83 commented 8 months ago

Compiling Chromium is a very time-consuming and complex task, and there is no particularly easy way.
