Okay, then don't expect anybody to build one. Web browsers are incredibly complex, and nobody is going to build one for free nowadays.

- mikestew 9y agoWait a minute, did I misunderstand? I thought we were talking about how websites would make money, not build browsers. Are you saying that Apple, who doesn’t depend on web advertising AFAICT, wouldn’t build this hypothetical browser because other companies wouldn’t make money? A more macro economic view, then?
- Sir_Cmpwn 9y ago>Web browsers are incredibly complex This is the problem. A much less complex browser, without wasm, without JavaScript, with a simpler DOM... would not be that incredibly complex and expensive to build. So the point is moot.
