The conspiracytheorist in me thinks Chrome's address bar is intenionally crippled to make you do a Google search instead. It's so so different from how well it works in Firefox.
It also breaks the rule in the article about not selecting the suggestion for you. When I start typing in Chrome it fills my whole bar with a suggested url that matches. I end up pressing esc to remove the last highlighted/completed part, but that ends up clearing the whole field. I do this multiple times a day, drives me nuts.
- isatty 8y agoAlright - use Firefox! It's a great browser and one that doesn't treat you as the product.
- maaaats 8y agoI do use Firefox as my private browser, but at work I switch between multiple browsers and various test environments. So I have lots of almost identical urls where Chrome completes something I don't want to be completed, or pretends it doesn't understand what I'm looking for.
