Slimjet historically has been one or two chromium engine versions behind Google Chrome. However, today, I think you are mistaken in your assessment. These are currently installed on my laptop. I copied the information from the "About" section of both browsers. You will note that both Google Chrome and Slimjet are running chromium 68.xxxx. No major complaints have surface on the forum about the Beta 20, should be just fine to use if your not on it yet. Slimjet 20.0.xx was released as Beta 8/24/18.

Google Chrome is up to date
Version 68.0.3440.106 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Slimjet
Version 20.0.0.0 (based on Chromium 68.0.3440.75) (Official Build) (32-bit)

Versión 19.0.9.0 (basado en Chromium 66.0.3359.117). This is my actual version today 27Aug18. Not updates available is the message when I verify this information in the browser

Same for me, no update showing and I checked the main/homepage for Slimjet and it shows the most recent as what you, (and I) have showing as the most current version.

If your auto-update is not set to Beta you won't see it until the developer is satisfied there are no major glitches that escaped his bench-testing PCs. He usually lets it go to general release after the second or third minor update. To grab it in Beta just switch your auto-update selection to check for Beta or when you go to the Slimjet Product homepage, click the download menu selection at the top of the page and on the download page you can see the Beta choices for download.

That is annoying. Sometimes the auto-update glitches and doesn't work. Just do a manual check for updates. Should give it to you. Or go to the download webpage.
