Controversial thought: Browsers will become a niche and fall into obscurity like IRC nowadays, based on what I observed working in South East Asia, where people don't even know what browsers are and "the internet" are walled social networks and apps.
- bfkwlfkjf 4mo agoIt's not controversial, I've heard the same for about 10 years now. I still thinking they're wrong - people who need control cant really on social network apps. People who are just "consumers", sure, but those already don't know what a browser is, so it's not really a prediction about the future it's a statement about the present.
- sys_64738 4mo agoQuite interesting comment. Did this group of folk not have access to a computer? Did they use Chrome or Safari?
