Google Chrome

Notes on making Google chrome work for me. Needs updating for 2020.

The two top things:

• sign in to a google account and save personal info, cc and imp passwords. This essentially gives you super powers browsing the internet.
• use a add blocker.

Flags

Some of these flags get set by

• Quiet notifications: chrome://flags/#quiet-notification-prompts kills the annoying notifications popups, just displays a bell in the notification bar instead. You can also choose to just block them altogether, but I like this compromise.
• Dark Mode: chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark forces dark mode
  • Make tab titles prominent in dark mode: chrome://flags/#prominent-dark-mode-active-tab-title

Extensions

Block adds: uBlock Origin is essential, can’t use computers without it anymore. Click here on the chrome web store link to install.
