What's that meant to mean? I use firefox, and I don't even see any suggestion anywhere on any Google properties to use Chrome, though there used to be something on the front page. Certainly never seen anything in gmail.
I agree that gmail is a disaster for people running their own email servers, though.
- pgalvin 6y agoGoogle intentionally slows or cripples many of their products on Firefox - simply changing the user agent makes them load faster and have all their normal features. See: Gmail & Google Photos on Firefox desktop (painfully slow, fixed with user agent), Google Images on Firefox Android (functionally crippled, fixed with user agent).
