    deeeep tech analysis from lemmings as usual

    actually no. IE dominated because MS owned the desktop and still do. IE was fucking awful and did not care about standards

    chrome dominated because it was fucking great. chrome now defines standards because the other browsers lag behind and standards themselves lag behind

    if anything safari is the new IE in apples fucking awful walled garden

      Chrome? This maybe reflects state from about 5-7 years ago. But nowadays it’s waaaay behind firefox.
      No ad blocker.
      No mobile extensions
      No compact bookmarks.
      Tracking built in.
      Chrome pushes ai llm without consent.
      On every update have to disable more things in settings pushed without consent.

      You are a browser, I don’t need you to store all my addresses and passwords and credit cards or loyalty cards whatever the fuck that is.

      It’s basically ms edge now

      Google is also abusing its monopoly to push Chrome. They are sabotaging other browsers on their sites while showing Chrome ads.
