Most Fediverse stuff has web front ends so that any modern browser will work.
My concern would be that Chrome is about to neuter ad blockers, and you can't use a different browser without replacing the OS.
Both are also heavily privacy destroying.
Based on this Chromebooks can run Firefox flatpaks.
Ah, it's been a while since I used ChromeOS. Looks like Flatpak was founded about the time I stopped.
Since most of the fediverse is run by volunteers, blocking ads isn't much of a concern.
Though I do agree with the sentiment and I love Firefox + uBlock Origin on my phone.
You can run Firefox on ChromeOS...
Ah, it's been a while since I stopped using ChromeOS. That's an improvement.
You can't easily run the normal version. You can install the android version fairly easily, but running the normal version requires you to enable a debian container from developer options
