Tips and Tricks
Launch chromium like this without GPU support:
$ chromium --disable-gpu https://youtube.com
Flatpak with Wayland Support:
#Currently Broken, this is for when mobians flatpak version supports expose-pids flag.
$ flatpak install flathub org.chromium.Chromium
$ flatpak override --nosocket=x11 org.chromium.Chromium #This step is optional, making sure we only start with wayland
$ flatpak run org.chromium.Chromium --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland
Those arguments need to be added to the Chromium .desktop file to always start with wayland.
