I cannot get the default Chromium browser to run on Debian 9.2 or 9.5. I have better luck using NetSurf. Why is Chromium the default web browser for BBB?

NetSurf does not fully support JavaScript at this moment. The reason I ask is because I have no luck turning on Chromium. I wonder if this only happens to me.
