I see comments like this a lot and it always makes me wonder if we have collectively forgotten just how damaging IE was the web or if our default vilification of a browser we don’t like is to just compare it with IE.
- userbinator 4y ago"damaging"? That's Google-propaganda for sure. Chrome is far more "damaging" than IE ever was.
- samtho 4y agoI never said chrome was not damaging. In fact, it’s damage is likely to be more widespread. The underlying point here was that it feels like we’ve picked an apples-to-oranges comparison when we say just how bad chrome is when compared to IE. Both were popular for different reasons, during different points of the internet, and are damaging in different ways.
