## Chromium fork for linux named after [radioactive element No. 90](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorium). Windows/MacOS/RasPi/Other builds see below.
- Always built with the latest x64 tip-o-tree "Trunk" build of [Chromium](https://www.chromium.org/).
- Always built with the latest stable version build of [Chromium](https://www.chromium.org/).
- Intended to behave like and have the featureset of Google Chrome, with differences/patches/enhancements listed below.
- Includes [Widevine](https://www.widevine.com/), [All Codecs](https://tools.woolyss.com/html5-audio-video-tester/), Chrome Plugins, as well as thinLTO, CFlag, LDFlag, LLVM Loop, and PGO compiler optimizations. It is built with [SSE4](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSE4), [AVX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Vector_Extensions), and [AES](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AES_instruction_set), so it won't launch on CPU's below 2nd gen Core or AMD FX, but benefits from Advanced Vector EXtensions. You can disable this and build with regular SSE3 like Chromium and Chrome, or use builds from [Thorium Special](https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Special), some of which are SSE4 only. (See below.)
