release notes
Every build,
on the record.
What changed, when it shipped, and how fast we tracked upstream. Surferse never updates silently — the updater fetches a signed manifest from updates.surferse.com and tells you what it found.
v150.0.7871.115
2026-07-08
currentChromium 150macOS · arm64163 MB
- Rebased onto Chromium 150 stable — all 58 patches re-audited on the new base, no new patches needed.
- UniAuth profile picker: clearer signed-out state, and the PKCE round-trip got measurably faster.
- Sync payload padding (patch 041): payloads are now fixed-size — the relay can no longer infer bookmark counts from traffic.
- New Tab tile grid aligns to the pixel on 4K and 5K displays.

Chromium 149security rebase · 54hmacOS · arm64
- Security rebase completed 54 hours after upstream stable, which shipped two high-severity fixes.
- Omnibox suggestions are now fully local — the last remote-suggest code path is gone (patch 009 finalized).
- Fixed: the Translate offer's strings could flash once on a cold first run before the removal patch applied.
- Vault-derived key rotation (patch 046) now completes in the background without pausing sync.
