- gempir 8y agoBut Chrome does exactly that. If you put focus in the URL bar in Chrome 69 it shows the full domain including protocol so amazon.de is visible on focus it's https://www.amazon.de https://www.amazon.de
- scarlac 8y agoI thought that's how it worked too but it is not. 1 click shows the entire url and selects it. Still without "www.". Another click will show "www.". Regardless of how you feel about the change, it does indeed hide 'www.' to the point where a power user could easily be fooled that it was the naked domain. Edit: Here's a demo of how it works: https://www.useloom.com/share/f7d71b95d75b4c4582bb38cdc8432654 https://www.useloom.com/share/f7d71b95d75b4c4582bb38cdc84326...
