I'm a huge fan of Chrome, but this is a huge loss.
Competition is good. Monoculture is bad.
That said, supporting all of the standards in a way that makes everyone happy is completely impossible. And if you're not in first place, it's just Cost, Cost, Cost for you.
I don't blame them for doing this, but I'm sad about it.
- robertAngst 8y agoThis is one of those things that as a Dev, fantastic. As a customer, meh, less competition. That said, there seems to be tons of competition on various formats, web competes with podcasts, mobile apps, and I would even say websites like Medium/youtube.
- VikingCoder 8y agoAd a Dev, you want things to just work. It's a tragedy that companies and standards committees can't give you APIs / SDKs / Standards that just work. When a company gives up, that's not good.
