Security: Upgrade to Chrome 88.0.4324.150 or higher / CVE-2021-21148

[tripleee]

Last week's Chrome upgrade was labelled as security critical. Could we please get at last a timeline for when we can expect you to release a safe, updated version of Iridium for supported platforms?

See e.g. https://www.macrumors.com/2021/02/05/chrome-88-includes-zero-day-exploit-fix/ (Mac site, but the linked article is not particularly specific to Mac).

this not getting an answer signals me that the project is no longer maintained. time to leave the sinking ship?
Maybe this is an alternative. https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium

we are in the process of the new release. due to team member changes it took a bit, but we're on track for a release in the near future.

For what it's worth, the Brave browser maintainers seem to have a more credible process for security updates from Chrome.
