Chromium is the upstream project for Google Chrome.
As of August 2016, Chromium is now included in the Fedora Repositories.
If you were using the old Chromium
http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/spot/chromium/[Copr] repository, upgrade your chromium.
Fedora's Chromium package does not support h264, mp3, or aac, because of legal concerns.
It is built to support the *widevine* plugin (but does not include it).
[id='google-chrome']
== Google Chrome
Chromium is upstream for Google Chrome.
Fedora does not include Google Chrome because it is
a proprietary product and bundles other proprietary software such as
Adobe Flash plugin. However, Google does maintain a dnf or yum repository
for Fedora at https://www.google.com/chrome/
The given link also includes downloadable RPMs that you can use to
install Chrome.
