Google has confirmed plans for native Chrome support on ARM64 Linux devices in Q2 2026 (April-June), bringing the full browser experience—including sync, extensions, security, and Google services—to users who have long relied on Chromium builds or emulation. This completes Chrome's expansion to Arm platforms after macOS in 2020 and Windows on Arm in 2024.
Mozilla has released Firefox 147, featuring support for the Freedesktop.org XDG Base Directory Specification that resolves a 20-year-old Linux issue. The update includes improvements for AMD GPU video playback, automatic Picture-in-Picture for videos, and enhanced security protocols. Available now for download, it marks the first major browser update of 2026.
