Samsung Internet is out of date - Chromium 99 / Chromium 102 (should be 106)

[nickthaskater]

Samsung Internet Beta on the left running Chromium 102.

Samsung Internet stable on the right running Chromium 99.

Microsoft Edge for Android stable in the middle running Chromium 106.

There are a number of websites which refuse to load either certain features or entirely fail if running an out-of-date Chromium version. Trying to load facebook.com desktop site, for example, yields an issue where you can't post comments because the Chromium version is out of date and unsupported.

It's bad enough that Samsung Internet does not support either Google autofill or Microsoft Authenticator autofill, instead forcing you to use Samsung Pass or some random third-party password managers, but this is just...bad.

I tried giving Samsung Internet another chance after using Edge for the past year. I guess I'm literally forced to stay with Edge. 

Do better, Samsung.

This is not an error to report. It's an objective fact that Samsung Internet is currently based on a much outdated version of Chromium. All the info that's needed is clearly presented in the original post.

Also, the last time I did that I received a canned response back asking me to clear my browser data. That is clearly not the issue.

They also told me to send a screenshot if the issue persists. I included a screenshot of the issue in the first place.

Samsung support doesn't actually seem to read the issues being presented. Your reply here is much the same otherwise you'd see this is not an "error".
