What's the best way to get the Chrome browser?


I just did a clean install to get Xubuntu 18.04LTS. Firefox is there by default but I'd like to get Chrome too and in a way that it updates automatically via the Xubuntu updates. (It's not in the Software Center.) Thanks.

Just download it from the following link. Installing the package will automatically set up the repository.
