It's interesting the first release on that page is from 2016 and then the build .zip was 69MB, the last release from yesterday weighs 100MB compared to the official chromium which is 179MB that is alot of google and alot of non-google added in 5 years!



I can't find a list of removed features, but I'm gonna take a wild guess that it includes proprietary codecs. It's the same reason why the chromium binaries in most distro repos are smaller than the official ones, but also useless for normal users that want to experience all content on the net.
