- yjftsjthsd-h 5y agoWould you believe that I would have preferred them pushing trident? For two, somewhat contradictory, reasons: 1. it'd help against the blink monoculture, and 2. if it was actually awful it'd make it easier for people to scream at MS about the issue.
- jcun4128 5y agoYeah my comment is about responsive development which thankfully I don't do much of anymore/try not to. I am not familiar with this will have to look it up: > blink monoculture Oh Google rendering engine hmm
- yjftsjthsd-h 5y agoRight; most browsers today (Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, not Firefox) are just reusing Chrome's rendering engine. This is concerning for reasons that amount to "an adtech giant now de-facto controls the web".
- SahAssar 5y ago> Oh Google rendering engine hmm It would have been the same if it was gecko, webkit, netsurf or anything else being as dominant as blink has become. The operative word is "monoculture", not which engine it is. The web needs independent implementations to continue being about protocols and standards, not programs or libraries.
