CAN I INSTALL THE BRAVE BROWSER ON MY CHROMEBOOK?

If you’re using a Chromebook, chances are high that you’re perfectly comfortable using the Chrome browser as your default portal to the internet. However, as the Chrome OS ecosystem continues to expand, more and more users are moving to the platform and some of them may want other options. Because of the nature of Chrome OS, you’re out of luck if you want to install a secondary browser directly onto the main operating system. Thankfully, there are curious people out there that like to ask me questions that lead me to figure out new and inventive ways to do cool stuff on Chrome OS.

One option for a second browser is to try out something from the Play Store. The only problem there is that you’re now using a mobile browser on a desktop and who wants that? So, we turn to Linux. More specifically, the Crostini project that brought Linux apps to Chrome OS. I’ve tested a few browsers built more specifically for Linux and the majority of them work as well as you’d expect. You can even install the Gnome Software Center and install a variety of browsers directly from there if you want to go that route. That’s all fine and well but one browser that is known far and wide among the tech-savvy and privacy-focused is the Chromium-based Brave Browser.
