If you're still using Chrome, do yourself a favour and install Firefox.
Let's be honest: Everything that might be "worse" or "annoying" in Firefox for someone is not relevant in comparison to "no working adblocker available". A browser without adblock is unusable
In Australia it won't save card details. And it can't natively create app shortcuts for things like Gmail, keep, whatsapp etc.
I put up with it but it's a pain compared to chrome and edge.
You could probably convince a third-party password storage program to store and auto-type details like that. Preferably one that doesn't need internet access to work.
Just double-checked with the help manual of the one I use (PasswordSafe) and it looks like it can do it. Never actually tried it though, which is one of the reasons I didn't mention it previously.
At the risk of sounding like an ad (I'm not affiliated, just a someone who found it in their Linux distro's package manager), there are versions of it for pretty much any device. I definitely can't vouch for the feature set(s) of the other versions, though.
