I posted about switching to Firefox as my "daily driver" browser as a little tiny step away from Chromium browser hegemony, and I had a ton of people in the replies suggesting I should just use Brave or Edge or Opera or Vivaldi instead.
I'm a little concerned that people don't realize just how pervasive this problem is. Every single one of those sits on top of the Chromium codebase.
@wydamn @j3j5 @silvereagle I’m really happy with Safari being able to push back, on account of it the only browser on iOS and therefore unable to ignore.
Apple having a browser monopoly isn’t a good thing, but currently that’s the lesser of two evils.
Firefox cannot reasonably push back against Google keeping a high pace in developing standards, because users can be forced to use a different browser.
@wydamn @jornane @j3j5 @silvereagle Seems not to be the reality anymore:
