No. People that care will simply stop using Chrome.
- archerx 3y agoI already have firefox installed on all my machines slowly transitioning over. Chromes new UI updates are really pushing me over to firefox faster. Now when I set up nee computers for friends I install firefox for them, when they ask me why not chrome I tell them chrome is old news and not to be trusted which they happily accept and use firefox. Slowly the tide is turning.
- lta 3y agoWhenever I'm helping a friend with their service, the price of my intervention is then switching over to Firefox, haha. The tide will turn
- szszrk 3y agoI stopped using Chrome and YouTube... If a service is getting close to unusable for you without an ad blocker, you should just ditch it.
- mortallywounded 3y agoI've been Chrome-less for several years and I am "Google-free" with regards to email, phone, services, etc. However, going without any Youtube is difficult. There's a lot of interesting content out there. Do you use an alternative way to access it, or go without it entirely?
- szszrk 3y agoIf I'm really motivated I either just download the content (yt-dlp) or use duckduckgo search interface. It's actually not bad. I started hosting Viewtube app hoping I'll catch up, but while it's quite amazing (surprisingly light and emulates subscriptions behavior for you), I had issues with it... So as for now I remain mostly cut off. There is a lot of great dev and ops related content (conferences) that I come back for, but not for subscriptions I used to love.
