And they’re all chromium under the hood. The illusion of free choice.

As it stands today Mozilla is the only thing keeping google from being labeled a browser monopoly, but man can Mozilla let go of the footgun for once.

Mozilla and Safari.

No, not Safari. While it’s technically true that Safari’s WebKit engine isn’t based on Chromium’s Blink engine, that’s only because the genetic relationship goes in the other direction: Blink was initially forked from WebKit (which was itself forked from KHTML, by the way).

Point is, Mozilla’s Gecko is the only major browser engine that’s fully unrelated to Blink.

As a web dev, screw safari. Apple just randomly decides to not follow web standards some time so I spend tons of time debugging random safari issues that I CANT EVEN TEST MYSELF because I don’t pay for apple products

The nicest thing I can say about it is at least they killed Flash.

The “best” argument I’ve heard recently for that heap of shit? The extensions have the best UI integration! Lol

People do so much bending over backwards to excuse every shitty thing apple does.
