I'm brand new to Arch and I've been messing around with linux for a couple years. So my issue is that the only way I can get Chromium browser to open is by running the chromium # command as root. As a normal user I run that command and I get the following error:
[:FATAL:chrome/browser/browser_main.cc(375)] Check failed: PathService::Get(chrome::DIR_USER_DATA, &user_data_dir). Must be able to get user data directory!

Basically, the chromium config directory belongs to root, not bongo (see output of "ls -al /home/bongo/.config"). Try executing
sudo chown bongo:bongo ~/.config/chromium -R
