I read about the new compression algorithm by google called Brotli.
I would like try it on my laptop, but chrome browser doesn't support it yet. Chrome Canary isn't available for linux.
So I ask If do you now a way to try Brotli on linux.

You could build Chromium from source. There are instructions here.
Brotli can be enabled in Chrome-like browsers via chrome://flags#enable-brotli
Brotli is also in Firefox from version 44 onwards. That's currently Firefox Beta so you could get that from here.
