Got it. Yes, installing the Linux version of Chrome can be better for data separation inside a single user space on ChromeOS compared to just using the Lacros browser, especially if you want to avoid mixing data between two main "umbrella" accounts. Here’s why:
Greater Isolation: The Linux version of Chrome operates within the Linux (Crostini) container, providing a higher level of isolation from the main ChromeOS environment compared to the Lacros browser, which is still integrated within the ChromeOS ecosystem.
Separate Environments: Running Chrome in a Linux container means it has its own isolated environment, making it easier to maintain distinct data boundaries and avoid accidental data mixing.
Independent Profiles: Both the Linux Chrome and ChromeOS Chrome maintain separate profiles, ensuring that bookmarks, cookies, browsing history, and extensions do not overlap.
Selective Syncing: By not signing into Google on the Linux version of Chrome, you can keep its data entirely separate from the ChromeOS version, providing better control over what data is shared or synced.
In comparison, while the Lacros browser does offer some separation by running a more standalone version of Chrome on ChromeOS, it may not provide the same level of data isolation as running a completely separate Linux container.
Summary
Linux Version of Chrome (within Crostini):
Greater isolation from ChromeOS.
Independent profiles and data storage.
Enhanced control over syncing and data separation.
Lacros Browser:
Separate from the main Chrome browser but still within the ChromeOS ecosystem.
May not offer the same level of data isolation as a separate Linux container.
Overall, using the Linux version of Chrome for data separation within a single user space on ChromeOS can offer a more robust solution compared to just using the Lacros browser when you need to maintain clear boundaries between two primary "umbrella" accounts.
