- adkadskhj 6y agoWeb browsers are an operating system these days. Having more dependence on them is like having more dependence on Linux/Windows/OSX. It's a pipedream to think they will remain consistent and/or shrink in use case. Like it or not, this is here to stay. What we should fight against, imo, is not browsers as an idea - but the lack of diversity. We're in a reality where we all but only two/three browsers - it would be as if we only had Windows and OSX. The answer wouldn't be to get rid of Windows or OSX, but rather create a rich ecosystem of complementing operating systems - ala Linux.
- znpy 6y ago> Like it or not, this is here to stay Like it or not, the web browser game is one monopoly after another. First it was internet explorer, now it's chrome. It's been happening again and again, the only way not to lose is not to play the game. Thus, relying less on the browser is a good thing.
