In Chrome under Settings -> Personal Stuff, I am given the option to 'Import Data from Another Browser..'. However Chromium is not displayed as an option...



enter image description here



Is the only way to do this to sync with my Google account? Is there an offline way to copy over the data? Or a workaround that does not require I have a Google account to sync to?

Do a copy of your ~/.config/chromium directory to your ~/.config/google-chrome directory.



You can also do a symlink, like this:



ln -s ~/.config/chromium ~/.config/google-chrome



That will use the chromium config as the "authoritative"/"master" config directory, with chrome just looking into chromium.



It's also a wise decision to quit Chromium and/or Chrome so that you don't have any issues with config directories.
