ungoogled-chromium is a free and open-source variant of the Chromium web browser that removes all Google-specific web services.[4][5][6] It achieves this with a series of patches applied to the Chromium codebase during the compilation process. The result is functionally similar to regular Chromium.[7][8]
Features[edit]
- Disabling functionality that requires Google domains, including Google Safe Browsing.[9]
- Replacing Google web domains with non-existent domains, and blocking internal requests to those domains.[9]
- Removing binary blobs from the Chromium code and replacing them with custom alternatives.[9]
- Adding dozens of flags to change browser behavior that is otherwise unconfigurable.[9]
Some features of regular Chromium do not work the same on ungoogled-chromium. For example, a special browser extension, called chromium-web-store, is required to install other extensions from the Chrome Web Store.[10]
History[edit]
The ungoogled-chromium project was founded by a hobbyist with the user name Eloston in 2015. It was first developed for Linux, then for other operating systems.[11][12] Eloston used to release builds, but eventually he stopped doing so and allowed others to provide builds with his patches.[13]
Starting in 2019, Eloston greatly reduced his involvement in the project, and other hobbyists have continued to maintain the patches.[1] In 2022, the GitHub repository was transferred from Eloston's personal account to a new "ungoogled-software" account.[14]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
