Got it. Thank you.Mozilla is more helpful when it comes to accepting patches and providing helpful feedback. Our version of Firefox is mostly the same as upstream, so when a new version comes out, we can just ship it.
Chromium is the opposite of all that. Last I saw, their stance was that they don't want to support hardware acceleration for other platforms because they want to prioritise a stable software-only experience.
apt preferences for those that want newer versions.
