- CharlesW 4y ago> Which remains there when people switch to Chrome Fewer than 5% of iOS users will switch to Chrome as their dedicated browser. (In-app browsers will continue to be WebKit.) > They will just flip on the non-existent rumored Google-level search… Just like the flipped on the M1 after a long gestation period, exactly.

A couple hundred employees with Apple's resources can do a lot in 7 years. > …and the non-existent public email service… iCloud Mail is Apple's public email services, and very few companies hosting email at Apple scale — iCloud has over a billion active users. If you have access to a Mac or Windows PC (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204283 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204283), you can set it up today. iCloud+ adds support for custom email domains.
