> How a company "specifically targets its services at individuals in the EU" is not clearly defined within GDPR. Does that mean that (e.g.) German bloggers are not bound to the GDPR when they just add "made for the Swiss&q

I never liked (old and new) Opera, but Otter is lovely. Still based on that Google engine though. Seems like it is "the standard" in our decade.

I prefer this one to the Explorer. Even decades later. Sorry, Microsoft.

Artificially limiting the choice of browsers is not really something that should be honored. But I thank you for this insight - I did not know this link.

Why wouldn't you still want to keep resource use down?

Yes, but they sadly diverged towards GNOME rather soon.

There were no major Unix DEs at the time IIRC. The CDE was the first joint approach to create one that actually ran everywhere .

I doubt that "the Unix philosophy" - do one thing well - is applicable to the increasingly more complicated world of GUIs, except the basic window managers like cwm.
