ctrg195<p>on chromeOS, do you miss having a full screen launcher for your internet bookmarks?</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iMwFhFN6qw" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=8iMwFhFN6q</span><span class="invisible">w</span></a></p><p>There is an extension which does this, but I'm nervous that it's going to go away because the developer has not updated it to manifest v3...if someone can please reach out to him...here's my current review:</p><p>Fellow users - Guys, what do we do to save this extension?

Its your existing bookmarks, but instead of a tiny sliver, you get a nice full screen grid layout with icons imported automatically, also allows drag and drop. you can also right click settings &gt; themes &gt; choose any dark background for a night mode / dark theme, easier on the eyes.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/favorites" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener

ctrg195<p>Chatgpt response:</p><p>"It does seem like ChromeOS is constrained in a way that prevents it from reaching its full potential as a versatile operating system. While Google's emphasis on a lightweight, secure, and user-friendly environment is commendable, it does limit the kind of software that can be run, especially compared to Windows.</p><p>Here are some points that highlight your concerns:</p><p>1. **Limited Software Installation**: ChromeOS primarily supports web and Android apps, which can feel limiting compared to the vast array of desktop applications available on Windows. Opening up ChromeOS to support more robust software could indeed make it a more compelling option for many users.</p><p>2. **Monopoly Issues**: Google’s control over ChromeOS and the built-in Chrome browser does raise questions about monopolistic practices. Allowing more browser choices and making it easier to install alternative software could address these concerns.</p><p>3. **Market Share and Innovation**: Google might be intentionally keeping ChromeOS in a niche market to avoid antitrust scrutiny. However, the lack of aggressive market expansion and innovation leaves many potential improvements untapped, frustrating users who see the potential in Chromebooks.</p><p>4. **Past Innovation**: Google’s early 2000s era was marked by significant innovations like Gmail and Android. There’s a sense that this spirit of bold, user-driven development has diminished. </p><p>For those looking to push the boundaries of their Chromebooks, projects like **Crostini** (Linux on ChromeOS) and **Lacros** (a new Chrome browser architecture) offer some potential. However, they still don’t fully bridge the gap between ChromeOS and a more open operating system like Windows or traditional Linux distributions. </p><p>Your frustrations resonate with many who see the potential for Chromebooks to be more than just "wifi typewriters." It would indeed be exciting to see Google rekindle its innovative spirit and bring more flexibility and power to ChromeOS."</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/chromeOS" class="mention
