I don’t think that’s a good analogy. Mercedes and Hondas have tangible differences in performance and amenities. On the other hand, Chrome, Firefox, Safari etc.

I don’t think that’s a good analogy. Mercedes and Hondas have tangible differences in performance and amenities. On the other hand, Chrome, Firefox, Safari etc. are built to operate to the same standard and work identically on approximately 100% of websites anyone ever uses.
- peoplefromibiza 3y agoSo why is Apple scared of other browser engines that "work identically on approximately 100% of websites anyone ever uses"? The point of my analogy wasn't to prove that Chrome is better than Safari, but that if I want an Honda, I do not want a car that looks like an Honda, I want an Honda (or a Mercedes or a Renault). Android has the same problem with WebView, it's Chrome by default, but at least on Android GeckoView exists. There must be a reason why Apple resists so much to making alternative engines available and nobody is buying that it is about security.
