M138 Beta Release!

[Alex313031]

1st M138 Beta build for the masses, after 9 months of no updates!

M138.0.7204.193

• This is a raw beta build. Expect things to possibly not work properly.

• Only SSE3 builds, don't want to compile all the builds just for a beta

• Manifest V2 support restored!

• It is missing the FTP patches and HEVC software decoding patches, but otherwise, all of Thorium is there.

I will be adding some more patches, fixing 2 flags, and reviewing all my commits over the last month before making final public builds for all the platforms. So, I'm not going to write the full release notes with all the changes and fixes until then.

Known Issues:

1. Th24 has some minor layout irregularities, but it's 90% working properly.
2. Restore Download Shelf (i.e. remove Download Bubble) flag is not working, and causes crash.
3. Setting notification permission prompts ( chrome://settings/content/notifications ) to anything than what I set it to (quiet and unobtrusive) will cause renderer processes crash. The app will appear normal, but in the background, hundreds of processes are spawned and crash immediately. Suggestion: DONT mess with notification settings until I fix it.

😸 Thank you everyone, that is all, wait for full release with full release notes before end of year!

Thanks a lot @Alex313031, it's been a long wait, but it's worth a wait. To be honest I can't go back to chromium because of the manifest v3, but I want to stick with your version of chromium because it has got everything that I need ❤️ 🙏!

I've tried this one. It doesn't work well. This version is slower than the previous one.

You do understand how timezones work?

Are there no releases for arm64 anymore?

Just wanted to say AwEsOmE work and great job. ✌️😎👍

I have an enquiry pertaining to NTP, particularly if it's possible to change the default of 10 favourite tiles either after Thorium is installed or would it need to be configured prior to building it? 🤔
