A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Because people are lazy to switch. 10 years ago Chrome was a far better browser than anything else & people have their google account filled with their passwords & bookmarks now. Most don't even know how easy it is to migrate all that to Firefox, or that Firefox is actually good since Quantum.

Also why would you use Chrome on Android? On Android at least you can switch to other stuff, unlike on iOS.

I wasn't arguing people on Android should use Chrome, it's just the default browser, so I don't expect most people to replace it.
