who's going to be their monopoly buffer if FF goes away?
- perbu 2y ago"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." (stupidity is the wrong term here, lazyness is more apt). Firefox is a the one different browser with an entirely different pedigree. Assumptions made about _all– other browser will not necessarily hold true for Firefox.
- M2Ys4U 2y ago>"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." (stupidity is the wrong term here, lazyness is more apt). Ah, but sufficiently advanced stupidity is indistinguishable from malice
- LinuxBender 2y agoAdding for completeness sake, two things can be simultaneously true.
- shiroiushi 2y agoSafari and Edge I guess. A lot of people use those, probably a lot more than Firefox, unfortunately.
- asadotzler 2y agoSafari outside of iOS is tiny. Edge is Chrome with a Microsoft skin and Microsoft advertising swapped for Google's.
- shiroiushi 2y ago>Safari outside of iOS is tiny. Are you sure about this? It's the default and main browser on every Mac computer, and there's a fair number of those out there, probably far more than the number of people using Linux on the desktop (unfortunately IMO). >Edge is Chrome with a Microsoft skin and Microsoft advertising swapped for Google's. Sure, but it's still a different browser, maintained by a competing tech giant and promoted as the default browser on the world's most-installed desktop OS. Tech people may understand it's just a Chrome re-skin, but the people running the court system don't understand or care.
