Re: [orca-list] google-chrome stable fedora 32 with all updates installed and --force-renderer-accessibility set as launch command, it fails to function

My guess is the environment variable is here to stay.  The flags can be
put in a few places and work all of the time.  One of the obvious places
is the .desktop file on that line starting with EXEC=.  Chrome has its
own internal configuration possibility and this is o.s.-dependent.
