I think the developer is not going to mess with anyone. And he will not let the development out of his hands. A Cent Browser is not an open source product. And its code and development will not appear on GitHub. Even if the product gets thrown.

Switched to a beta one based on Chromium 86. It's feature rich and as good as (or not better than) Cent.

Not sure. I'm using MacType and didn't see any problem.

Yes, there's an option to enable/disable DirectWrite in chrome://flags

What browser did you end up switching to? Mind throwing up a link?

This is the 360 Extreme Explorer browser. Beta version 13.0.1088.0 on Chromium 86.
Stable version 12.0.1502.0. On the core Chromium 78. But the developers are putting all the latest security patches on the current core.

My mom told me to keep away from 360 products.

You just need to know how to "cook" these products. :-)
And for this there are trackers and repacks.

When I started CentBrowser there was something awkward in the tab; as if script was being installed in the background. I suspected a malware. I found out the reason for this awkwardness through ProcMon & Fiddler. Cent was downloading self-PepperFlash to %Temp% folder and extracting it to the User Data folder.
Code:
"%Temp%\components_upgrade.exe" -s -d".......\User Data"
My personal Cleaner .BAT file removes junk files and folders from Cent's User Data. One of the folders that deleted is User Data\ PepperFlash.
I don't use Flash. Also, since I deleted this folder, I don't want to burden Cent's own server (by downloading 13 MB of RAR SFX file) every time it starts. I looked for ways to turn this off.
Sorry, the following switchs didn't work.
Code:
--cb-disable-components-auto-update
--disable-bundled-ppapi-flash
--disable-component-update
Whether the UserData\ PepperFlash folder is in place or not, Cent persistently downloads the components_upgrade.exe file (PepperFlash) to %temp% and extracts it to the User Data folder.
I ask you to add a switch (--cb-disable-bundled-ppapi-flash, how?) or a setting that prevent the automatic download of components_upgrade.exe in the next build. I suggest you may set this feature as default to ease the load on your server.
You can disable Flash in chrome://settings/content/flash, and then leave these files alone.
If you deleted them, they will be downloaded again.
This is a design flaw.
