That's me, too. I can't remember exactly when, but i mentioned something about it on here regarding Chromium several months ago. Sid Unstable and I are.... on a break. It was just too much to keep up with the FABULOUSLY active updates that are occurring. So I skipped over Stretch and went with Jessie. Jessie lasted a grand total of maybe about 3 days, I think it was. Websites keep complaining that my Chromium was out of date. Unfortunately my Chromium was as current as the repos had at that moment. Tinkering to stay on Jessie was not a cognitively friendly option so I stepped over to Stretch. If there has even been a tiny burp of a problem, it was so small or was fixed so quickly that I don't remember it. #ThankYou, Developers! I'm about to do something extremely #Life changing in a few minutes. I *literally* could not do it without all the well functioning Debian packages I'm about to spend the entire rest of the evening buried in....
