I think this is for passing options to the terminal emulator programme.

However,

Have you tried `Exec=chromium --disable-font-subpixel-positioning %u` ?

You can probably also put it in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile, or possiby 
~/.login . Putting it in ~/.zshrc likely doesn't have the effect you hope for 
because the launcher for the desktop environment doesn't use your login shell 
but either /bin/sh or whatever shell is configured at the top of individual 
shell scripts.

How many plugins does one still need nowadays?! FF does have somewhat less 
extensions but the ones I find crucial do exist or can be adapted from the 
Chrome version with a (half)automated tool.
FF was more than 2x faster than Google Chrome across several CPUs and operating 
systems on an HTML5 benchmark that sadly has been retired since (that was 1 or 
2 y ago). Even my self-compiled QtWebkit (the rebooted version) was faster, 
almost 2x. FF is also the only browser that is still kept up-to-date for the OS 
version I have on my Mac, so that's what I use across the board nowadays.
