You're focusing on technicalities, but the real issue is political/social in my opinion. If Firefox did not exist, what other powers exist to prevent Google from shaping the Web for its own benefit more than it already has?
I personally don't even care whether or how much feature parity Firefox has or whether its GPU rendering is 20% slower. Not supporting Firefox comes at our own loss.
- sneak 5y agoFirefox does nothing to prevent Google from shaping the web; the users of Firefox are largely irrelevant to the web.
- 3gg 5y agoMozilla is a member of the W3C, and as long as it has a substantial share (and good leadership), it can influence things. Our job is to be that share. Also, there is no such thing as an "ungoogled chromium". Google controls chrome/ium, and as long as people use it, those people remain subject to Google's control.
