Chrome flags and developer addon option sounds like 5-10 minutes of work to me, and for updates zero work on Linux since it exists as Flatpak, and you update your Flatpaks with flatpak update command. On Windows and MacOS, likewise, you just download the newest binary setup or use one of those new fancy package managers.

Ungoogled Chromium is the only clean, non-spyware version of Chromium, which makes it the only correct Chromium recommendation. You want to recommend adware/spyware/cryptomalware for 1% more convenience?
