You’re only considering the (debatable) positives (chrome sucks ass, folks). If you can’t engage in a good faith discussion why bother posting?

  You must not remember the web before google and google funded firefox!! This whole "google has never done anything" meme just seems ridiculous on its face. Google took on and basically CRUSHED some major market players and powers (Microsoft basically lost the entire web and handset markets from a monopoly position) as a result of google service offerings. Check out how much money they pumped into firefox as well - that used to be a major part of their push vis a vis IE. Regardless of how much google "sucks" - they seem to have at least some things that folks like.

    Right, well given that they HAVE obviously done a lot of things, I would interpret them to mean “they haven’t done anything I’ve liked or wanted or expected”, which is certainly fine to express. I don’t see why this justifies brushing away google’s decline with “but their products have engagement”. It’s like arguing because people buy an iphone, the iphone is the smartphone people want—in reality it’s just necessary and mildly better in some subjective way than the competition.

      Again, I think you don't realize how substantially better the iphone was compared to the competition (which then has worked to copy the iphone).
