    hi there kiran! your article is recent, posted on the 2nd of november 2017. the latest version of google chrome (62.75) has been available for linux mint & windows 10 since last week. but solus os is stuck at version 62.62.

    i dont understand why. solus os is supposed to have the latest packages. but it doesn't include the leading & most popular web browser on the planet.

    solus should be supporting chrome & put it in their repos to give us the latest version as soon as it is available.

    firefox is good. in fact, i'm using the latest beta release of firefox quantum (v57b14), but it is a dying breed. its market share keeps dropping every month.

    the solus devs should give priority to software the majority of users want

    Just in case someone will bump in this article too.
    The described procedure for google chrome doesn't work anymore.
    The correct one can be found in https://getsol.us/articles/software/third-party/en/

    sudo eopkg bi -ignore-safety https://raw.githubusercontent.com/getsolus/3rd-party/master/network/web/browser/google-chrome-stable/pspec.xml

    sudo eopkg it google-chrome-*.eopkg

    sudo rm google-chrome-*.eopkg

    Hi!

    this step:
    Finally double-click on the AppImage file. Chromium browser should open.
    does not work. Nothing happens. I did double click, Intro, reboot Solus…
    I marked the check “Allow executing the file as program”.

    I am trying these days Solus, But I think its not so nice. I had some problems, and also use different commands in Terminal
