Can anyone share their experience running Google Chrome on a Raspberry Pi? By experience I mean: How you did it? What is it's performance? Would you do it for your mother? I figure if it is acceptable for a mother then it is prime time
I'm hoping to use a Pi3B+ to run google chrome. My objective to run Bell Satellite television. My daughter has asked me to display the Vancouver Canucks game on a giant TV screen in her back yard. She is inviting a bunch of friends over to celebrate her husbands 30 birthday.
I recently relocated, so all my adaptors and cables went to good will or the dump. Then I got thinking, why not a networked Pi. I can watch the ESPN Channel from my Bell Satellite television on my Ubuntu Linux computer using Google Chrome. If Google Chrome worked on a Pi maybe that is the solution. I also think it would be pretty cool for his buddies to see what the old retired father-in-law does in his spare time
Pi comes with Chromium not a stand-in for Google Chrome. The most recent reference I can find to getting Google Chrome to work is 2017. https://www.raspberrypistarterkits.com/how-to/install-chrome-raspberry-pi/
I have one week to make this happen or I go buy cable and string the line out the back window from the Satellite receiver to a TV. I think the Pi wireless would be so much more slick!
