While trying to get Zoom in a browser working (with Raspbian
10/buster and Chromium 92.0.4515.98 or perhaps newer by now on a
Raspberry Pi 4 with 4G RAM), I often get "Aw, snap! Something
went wrong."

Web searching found one suggested solution is to use a
--disable-features=RendererCodeIntegrity option. However, some
hits on that topic claim that solution is Windows-specific.

Is that option (--disable-features=RendererCodeIntegrity)
specific to Windows? Or, is it also applicable to Linux,
Raspbian to be specific?

Thanks.

As far as I can ascertain, Renderer Code Integrity enables Windows' Code
Integrity Protection feature, to prevents unsigned DLLs from linking against
Chrome's renderer process.

Linux doesn't have the same feature, so I don't think that solution is
applicable to Linux.

That's a dumb down for something written in a log file.

Have a look at the bottom of here.

The OP is using Zoom in a browser, not the Zoom app (which doesn't exist for
Linux/arm to my knowledge). However you can enable logging in Chromium:
https://www.chromium.org/for-testers/enable-logging/

The 'Aw, snap!' message suggests the renderer process crashed. That's the
bit that reads the web page and does the page layout. *Something* in it has
gone wrong, but it's a very broad scope so no clues what it might be. The
log might help.

Thanks for that pointer about enabling Chromium logs!
