little bit of lag while opening and closing browser or a new tab but nothing unmanageable.
which chrome shows nothing I mean when I put this into console and hit enter it comes back to the typing prompt.
which firefox shows /usr/bin/firefox.
Every time start chrome the specific message I get is " The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer "
yes, I did download chrome and install it. Will install it via apt get. Thanks for pointing this out.

Did you install the *.Deb file or got the tarball archive and using it?? This is something that happens when using appimage or using tarball without building.
You can install Deb file through gdebi, that's integrated in mint.

Strange. Some dont provide repositories and only give deb files. Mostly proprietary ones, Like Slack(It does have a snap package) Or VS Code
The problem with installing deb files directly is that apt will not manage those packages. So, it will be hard to uninstall them if there is any issue.
That is why only install deb if there is absolutely no other option. Otherwise, look for PPAs that provide the necessary packages.

There are pre-built binaries for both Chrome (Google owned) and chromium (open source)

Chromium: How to Install Chromium Browser in Ubuntu Linux - It's FOSS
Looks like you (or something) terminated the apt process while it was working. You can delete the lock file (`/var/lib/apt/lists/lock`) as root and run apt update again.
apt uses a lock file to ensure that multiple apt operations don't run simultaneously. So, while you were in the middle of performing some apt operation if you terminate the process, the lock does not get removed, thus preventing any future apt operations from executing because apt thinks that an apt process is still running.
As for the 404 error looks like either the server is down or the package has been moved from the server. You could verify this by opening that link in a browser and see if it still returns 404.
Usually running apt update would also update the package mirrors. So try this and post here if there are any issues.

Interesting read. TFS.
Didn't know the Windows included in pre-built machines was such a big deal back then!
Mostly because I have rarely bought a laptop, and always made my own machine.

Is it because he do not give the package, or they ain't even allowed to be in the repo, (in case of VS code, OSS code exists)?
