Hi,
First of all let me thank you for high quality maintainership of chromium package in Arch.
This post was really surprising for me and sad but also quite confusing because I don't understand how lack of some minor feature can involve nuclear option of removing dominant and most tech-advanced browser on the market from Arch repos.
Nobody ever suggested removing Firefox.
I bet most users won't even notice lack of it and some may even welcome removal of so called "spyware".
Those who treat geolocation as critical feature may choose different browser but forcing everyone out of they beloved one for this particular reason seems like overreaction to me.
Yours sincerely
G. K.
