@scanlime... do you believe the romans were the good guys?

Because I'm not calling this a good thing.

@faho i don't see how the joke works unless you want to conflate "chrome" with all "web browsers"

@scanlime Chrome has had a fuckton of work poured into it, and competing with that requires a huge budget?

That's why Chrome's hegemony is so hard to beat, which is why "everyone" but Mozilla has basically given up on making their own browser from scratch

@faho i don't know why folks dismiss firefox already?

@scanlime I... I don't?

I use it?

It's just that Chrome has the overwhelming market share, so it is the thing to beat?

Firefox is somewhere at *maybe* 10% (discounting mobile entirely because that's a broken ecosystem).

@faho sounds like you're looking for a technical solution to a social problem then

@scanlime @faho dude, you should get some fresh air, it must be hard to breathe with your head lodged firmly up your ass.
