  19. [R59] CESCO Digital 3/5 · US Pago: No me permite el pago
  20. [R61] Google Chrome 1/5 · US Scrolling Tab Groups: This is still an issue as of 7/9/26 - Taking away the ability to scroll through tab groups when you’re trying to add a link to the them was not a good decision. I can’t for the life of me think of any reason why anyone would think it was.
  21. [R67] Google Chrome 1/5 · US New Update: This new update is infuriating. I don’t want Gemini at the bottom of my page, or anywhere near me. I don’t want the search and tabs bars to be disjointed. The fact we cannot return Chrome to how it was before the update, or remove Gemini from our bar!, is awful. Please give us the option to return back to the previous version of Chrome.
  22. [R70] Google Chrome 2/5 · US Too much AI: I am sick of AI trying to guess what I’m thinking all the time. It tries to correct my technical word spellings (incorrectly of course) of course). Or suggests words that pop up and have no relevance and interrupts my train of thought that wastes my time. I feel like it’s gathering information from me so that it can “learn” but I don’t feel it’s my responsibility to be a teacher to t
  23. [R76] Google Chrome 1/5 · US New update BUGS: Recent updates have caused my chrome browser to start saving search history and websites browsed even though settings are all turned off. I verified settings were off, updated the app, and it is still happening. This just started this week. What is going on????
