Enlighten me, why does this matter?
- IshKebab 5y agoIt shows how mature Fuchsia is. Chrome is an enormous piece of software that requires a lot of things to run.
- hortense 5y agoModern browsers use an extremely wide range of system APIs: process/IPC/sandboxing, memory, networking/connectivity (e.g. bluetooth), filesystem, GPU, audio, windowing system, device IO (keyboards, webcam), and more I'm sure. I can't think of any other kind of software that come close. If you can run a modern browser it means that your OS is already quite mature.
