Could anyone who's using Chromium on Debian please create a page on
wiki.debian.org which lists the alternative options to use a current
Chromium (Flatpak, ungoogled Chromium from elsewhere, snap, whatever else
there is)?
This would be useful to help people now looking for an alternative and
we can eventually also reuse this page if we need to EOL for stable/oldstable
(which we should do if the situation doesn't change in a sustainable
manner by early next year).
Cheers,
Moritz
