Thank you for this link! Not being able to easily install extensions into ungoogled-chromium was the main reason I've not switched to it as my main browser.



> Not being able to easily install extensions into ungoogled-chromium

You can.

1. Download the .crx file(s)

2. Rename to .zip, unpack

3. Visit "chrome://extensions/" page

4. Select Developer Mode, then Load unpacked, select folder of previous extracted zip file

5. There you go.


Easy:

0. Visit store, find extension, hit install

Not as easy:

Do the same, but now add 5 more steps.


Which is a complete ball-ache when you use as many different machines as I do.
