Hi

On the related topic.

There is an interesting project that tries to remove Google-specific
bits from the browser called ungoogled-chromium [1] and corresponding
AUR package for it [2].

Taking the current situation into account and the future uncertainty
wrt Google service integration would it make sense for Arch to move
towards ungoogled-chromium solution?

The scope of that project is very different, and I don't see any reason to slow down packaging new releases of chromium in order for a political fork to play catch-up.
