    That will stop working way sooner than you’d like. Freezing a browser isn’t tenable at all, not just for features websites are expecting but also security issues. There’s a reason every browser except Safari has a 6 weeks release cycle.

      Web tech doesn’t evolve that fast. You can use a 1 year old version today without worrying about missing any website functionality.

      What you’re missing is features that the browser itself introduces, but in this case those would be anti-features so arguably Chrome will be getting worse.

      Then there’s of course the security vulnerabilities.

      Of course the whole discussion is moot since there’s a much simpler alternative, switching to another browser.
