New Google Chrome - New look and big update for their 10th birthday 🎂
by•
Chrome is getting a new look today, 10 years after Google’s browser first launched. The new design includes rounded shapes and tabs, a fresh color palette, and updated icons. Google is updating the whole of Chrome to include this new user interface, and altering prompts, menus, and URLs in the address bar to match the new design.

It's hard tell which host I was browsing since the Chrome team turn on this feature: chrome://flags/#omnibox-ui-hide-steady-state-url-scheme-and-subdomains
Pros:tell me about it
Cons:WHY Omnibox UI Hide Steady-State URL Scheme and Trivial Subdomains
Never been a huge fan of Chrome due to it's hoggish nature, lack of good privacy, sub-par Inspect Element feature, etc... [should I mention that it updates itself when it wants to - it hadn't updated my Chrome since v59 and claimed that there were no updates when I tried forcing it to].
This feels like a version update to make some noise around it's 10yr anniversary but not really something that is going to make that big a difference in the world of browsers...
Wish Google would truly try to innovate and rethink browsing ENTIRELY like Opera did with their concept browser: Opera Neon
Pros:I guess we could it call it something new
Cons:When Show Bookmarks Bar is on, visual white gutter height not adjusted - doesn't seem so polished
It's about time it is well-rounded LOL
Pros:Looks snazzier
Cons:Slow at times
