Amen. I was a complainer about Apple's insistence on WebKit, but when I thought it through I realized that it's the only bulkhead against a total Chrome takeover.
I admire a lot of Europe's consumer protections, but this EU legislation is a huge overreach, written by politicians pandering to hype that they are too ignorant to assess.
- chasil 4y agoKHTML from the KDE project was Apple's surprise choice for the Safari browser, in preference to Gecko. Everyone expected Apple to choose Gecko for their rendering engine. Chrome and Safari both ran WebKit for many years until Google forked to the Blink engine. Blink (as a descendent) is far closer to Webkit than either are to Gecko. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/KHTML https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/KHTML
