[Chromium] Release Coc Coc for Linux (Ubuntu, Deepin, Debian, Kylin, Cent, Elementary.....)

[Aikatsui]

Why did you developers removed linux version and force people to use rest of proprietary operating systems? Coc coc is a simple chrome fork. There're many other forks available out there that far more better eg: vivaldi

I couldn't find anywhere else or forum to reach developers. Is it possible for coc coc team to share ETA for linux version?. that's not a hard task. furthermore, you're able to release the application to snap store, flathub etc.

if you still need that browser running in linux, use wine and install it normally, its should work but with a lots of vietnamese content in homepage

Coc Coc, a browser designed specifically for Vietnamese users, incorporates a variety of free tools.

That is NOT acceptable for a pure Vietnamese browser. I don't think it will happen with IPs outside of Vietnam, but in Vietnam it's constantly annoying

cá nhân em thấy, người VN dùng Cốc Cốc phục vụ giải trí đa phần là người lớn tuổi, low tech, thứ họ cần đều đáp ứng đủ, báo E, vtv go, các icon fb, ytb, zalo. việc tùy chỉnh này cực kỳ phù hợp với tầng lớp người dùng đó, chưa kể tới việc tích hợp IDM vào tải cũng ổn. cái quảng cáo có 5s thui, và nó tự động tắt đi, nên người dùng cũng không để ý lắm đâu.
nhưng với người trẻ thì phiền thật, qua brave thôi bác.

Can you guide me to install it on linuxmint? I tried with wine and bottles but it didn't work.

(I am not the person that was aimed at, but I think I might be able to help anyway) On Linux Mint, the default Wine version tends to be ancient.

I recommend using the Devel version instead by default. I've used it for three years now (while updating immediately once an update is available), and it has yet to break something. The tutorial is here (choose the winehq-devel from the Install Wine section): https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu (includes specifics for Mint)

It work, thank you so much you was save my life :)))) comment in there

brave nó không dùng được multi profile hay sao ý bác, em tính dùng trải nghiệm rồi mà nó không dùng được nhiều profile với đồng bộ bookmark từ coccoc qua :(((

its always have ads about gambling games on the homepage, that causes ppl in Vietnam to lose money more and more property. It's almost impossible for international people to use it

lmao bro
It is designed specifically for the Vietnamese market, so there is no reason why a user would criticize a browser that is not intended for them

em nghĩ dùng nhiều tài khoản chắc không con nào qua được chorme. với lại ram ddr4 ở mình khá rẻ. ông cu em đi học em vừa mua cho nó 1 con slim 7 prox 32 ram 1t rom, không sợ tràn ram như hồi mình dùng nữa đâu bác ạ 😸

not sure why but it doesnt work with wine for me. It installed and i can open it but it looks like this. Buttons dont load and i cant use the build in coc coc download feature..

Just a note - I do not have CocCoc - I only added my two cents in the discussion by recommending a non-ancient version of Wine inside Mint.

Personally, I do not recommend using a browser as a Windows executable inside Linux. Having a Linux version instead seems like a much better idea (but of course you are free do run any Windows software inside Linux, just be aware that it may be far from perfect).

But hey, it is getting there. Over ten years ago, Wine had problems running Windows' Notepad. Nowadays, it can run a lot of older games perfectly (and sometimes even with better performance, if Vulcan wrapping is used to wrap Direct3D calls!) and Wine's spinoff Proton can run quite a decent amount of MODERN games (as Steam Deck is a Linux distribution, Steam wants pretty much all Windows-exclusive games to be playable on it, giving us a possibility of having good gaming compatibility on Linux - I do not have Steam, but I love Proton :3 ).

WineHQ has a BugZilla where you can file a ticket. You should use the commandline to launch your browser in Wine in a debugging mode (Wine's debugging mode) with a log file. That log file can be attached to the ticket and they should be able to fix CocCoc under Wine with that. If you check their devel changelog, they are fixing A LOT OF THINGS on a weekly basis.

I only use it because it can download videos from almost every website :) So im just trying and testing if I can get it working

Why don't you simply use JDownloader with a different browser?

The only thing that it can't download yet is Twitch videos and torrents. Youtube and others are supported. For Twitch, I am using TwitchDownloader: https://github.com/lay295/TwitchDownloader ( optionally with a GUI from https://github.com/mohad12211/twitch-downloader-gui ). For torrents, qBittorrent is decent. For just downloading them, Transmission is enough. Also, the Brave browser has a torrent downloading support.

JDownloader also has an extension when you can put stuff into it straight from a browser by using its extension, but I am not using that.

Can jdownloader download directly from sites like voe.sx?

Try googling first before asking questions - it took me less than five seconds to google what you have asked for. Other search engines would've probably worked too.

I did but their forum is not really helpful. I was there a few times before because I had different questions and it didn’t help at all. Coc coc is good because it can download from almost every website - I never had any problems with voe or something not working. Not sure how but they grab the m3u8 or whatever when you start to play the video. You don’t have to search in dev tools. Everything is automated. The download feature was the only reason why I installed coc coc. But I switched to Linux now - I don’t have a problem with running it trough wine but as you can see it doesn’t work🥲

You don't have to use dev tools to download anything through JDownloader. Just give it a link - it doesn't have to be link directly to the file, but only a page that mentiones it. It will crawl through the link, load a plugin relevant to the website that tells it how to get a direct file link from it, and then you will see the file and can select to download it. All is automated.
The same goes for example for youtube. You can set up a LOT of settings for youtube's plugin for JDownloader, like the container you prefer, etc. Then you put in either the watch page URL, or a playlist URL. And it will spit out files that you can then choose to download.
It is very straightforward and quick once you do it at least once - it becomes intuitive after first use.

Hmm, I checked out voe.sx and it seems like I need to have an account to do anything there. Accounts for plugins can be set in the settings of JDownloader.

I was going to record a video of downloading something from voe.sx and then putting it on my youtube.com or rumble.com ...which is a bit of an irony due to what service voe.sx provides.

I do not understand what voe.sx does that youtube and rumble do not. 10 dollars a week to upload in 720p and watch in 1080p?

I'm doing 2K60FPS and 4K60FPS videos on both youtube and rumble... FOR FREE. 🤔

(don't forget to set the quality to 2K and enable English subtitles, those were manually made)

In any case, we are getting a bit offtopic. My email is [email protected] - if you would like to continue our discussion, let's do so there.

Thank you! I had to try a few times but jdownloader found the video and downloaded it! Thanks for showing me this. And btw I dont use voe to upload I use it to watch ill..- i mean movies and series.

Why did you developers removed linux version and force people to use rest of proprietary operating systems?

As a co-founder and CEO of Cốc Cốc, I must confess that the software in its current state behaves more like malware and spyware than a reliable application. While there is no Linux version available, running the Windows version on Linux via Wine is actually fine—provided it is containerized or run in a highly isolated environment. Given the nature of the software, even if a native Linux version existed, I would still recommend running it in a secure container or virtual machine to ensure minimal risk to the host system.

Oh wow I didn’t know it’s that bad. Why is it malware? What are they doing? It didn’t work with wine for me all the buttons didn’t load. It was unusable. I use jdownloader now. Took some time to understand it but it’s way better.
