Not saying you guys are wrong, just saying where it seems you get blowback for what another vendor doing more or less the same thing wouldn’t even register as a talking point. Not saying it’s fair, but it seems people hold you to something

I agree with you on most of those, but the problem with a Facebook or Twitter is how do you handle the open ecosystem analog? Is there anything more simple than Facebook/Twitter (Facebook example here mostly) in usage that random frien

I wish they hadn't maintained dominance as much as they have, but at the same time, IE being a non-standards compliant actor and Chrome at times including non-standard web features have brought out the best in Firefox: with IE, it forc

Not OP, but I'd imagine that it is Brave seems to be a browser that advocates for the user (and presumably in the future, publishers too with the pay thing). As such, the ideals seem more aligned with Firefox than Chrome (and by extens

during Chrome's climb, Firefox was a fairly slow mess and in some ways caused by users having tons of addons enabled at any given time. Firefox was a lot better than IE when Firefox came out (and remained that way even during its slow

in your first one, you didn't ask for feedback on it but stating you had presented it. As far as the proposal, you basically say Mozilla is petering out/an also-ran and that they should essentially leverage what can be leveraged f

During that time, Firefox OS was their big push, so it would make sense that he'd discuss it. It doesn't seem like he's saying, now, Firefox OS would be a hit. He also goes on to say that the company has people of varying opi

Curious where I implied Huawei didn't before (merely stated the enforcement for patents, or "rules" as you put it, no longer apply because the negatives are already in place against them).

NordVPN has seemingly slowed down as of late too. Though there are so many nodes that who knows what’s going on and how prevalent. Previously when connected, my line would go down to 50+ Mbps: perfectly reasonable. Now, I test and it is sub

Somewhere along the way, ad networks got incredibly greedy (I know, gasp). I remember when I was much younger, there were banner ads on a bunch of pages (and pop-ups/pop-unders of varying levels of frustration). The banner ads were fin

Going to try to respond to this in good faith. I know there is some intrinsic bias what with Google being an ad company, but I'll try to ignore that and assume they wish to protect users within Chrome, advertising division be damned. O

I’m kind of shocked by this. Careers torpedoed because of being unable to get past the UI (presuming they didn’t come from Maya or some other system)? Would seem that’s the first hurdle before getting to the core of the discipline. Like I

That's interesting. We use IIS, I wonder if there's a similar means for doing analytics at that level instead of the analytics library on the front end approach. I'll need to look into that a bit, thanks.
