To explain further, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple and Amazon would be happy if the open web died and people had to use apps instead. The only big player with self interest in ensuring the open web continues to exist and be a good user experience is Google.
- kaba0 6y agoGoogle is the single most dangerous entity when it comes to the open web. Basically the current web is more or less the walled garden of google and it has the power to decide the future of web technologies
- username90 6y agoRight, but remove that Google "garden" and you close the web to many people. It might become more open to some people like you, but the average user likely will stop using it entirely. With that many will just stop maintaining a web page since the users are found elsewhere, and from there it is just going downhill until we are at current linux adoption rates. It will be alive, but only for enthusiasts.
