minus-square Quintus ( @Quintus@lemmy.ml ) linkfedilink49•1 year agoAlright so what’s the biggest threat that the Open Web is facing right now? Web Enviroment Integrity. What’s the biggest browser engine that’s not Chromium? Gecko. (Firefox) Which group of people use Chrome most? Average Joes. What attracts Average Joes? Shiny new features. What is this post about? Shiny new features. I think this is a perfect opportunity to make people switch to Firefox. Though an antitrust lawsuit would probably be quicker.
