I just found the vivaldi browser, which based on chromium, works really good for me. Thus I need to find a way to migrate. Here we go:
Find a config file of chrome, usually located under
~/.config/google-chrome
|~~/.config/google-chrome-beta
|~/.config/chromium
or similar places.Create a soft link of the folder called
default
withln -s
or whatever method preferred.Run vivaldi once and close it to generate proper configuration files.
Locate the vivaldi config file, usually located under
~/.config/vivaldi
.Delete the
default
folder under~/.config/vivaldi
.Copy the softlink just created here and name it
default
.Till now, we got everything but stored password in the browser migrated successfully. If preferred, copy the whole
default
folder from chrome and override the one for vivaldi will do the same trick but prevent sharing config files.Also, copy all the content under
~/.config/google-chrome
|~~/.config/google-chrome-beta
|~/.config/chromium
into~/.config/vivaldi
litereally
==For now, no automatic way to make importing password possible. However, one can manually do so….==
