In contrast, Chromium does not include an automatic update system. As an open-source project, Chromium relies on users or distribution channels to provide updates. This means that staying current with the latest versions of Chromium requires manual intervention, such as downloading and installing updates from the official repository or relying on package managers in Linux distributions.
While this approach offers greater control over the update process, it places the responsibility on users to monitor and apply updates, which can be a drawback for those seeking a hassle-free browsing experience.
