      Unless your firmware flasher is serving ads, and I really hope it isn’t, there’s no issue using chtome for things like that. Just use Firefox for everything else. It blocks more than just some ad trash. And you can have 2 browsers installed at the same time. They don’t fight each other.

      why would you want a browser based firmware flasher? the web browser should surely not deal with hardware. you don’t even get to know if the flashing code has changed, or verify it in Any way

      I have already hated the grapheneos web flasher, even if its just made for those for whom themost basic computer terms area dufficult task, like download this file, type cmd into the start menu, press enter, paste this command text, press enter. but it could have been solved with a most simple gui executable too!
