Yup, and that’s why I haven’t used Chrome as my primary browser in well over a decade. I went with Opera until they became a chromium clone and have been with Firefox ever since (and used them before Chrome was a thing). I only used Chrome for a couple years when it first came out, then bailed because other browsers were better in terms of features.
I use Firefox full time but I’m bummed at the number of sites that break in odd ways when not using Chrome. As an engineer, I understand how appealing it is to only have to test in one browser, but this monopoly is the result.
when the most popular browser engine is made by advertising corporation…
