They are all chrome with google scratched out and their name written in sharpie in its place.
Of course they are all doing it, cause they are all the same thing.
They don't even try to pretend to fight it.
because theres no fighting google.
Microsoft tried, and google won, which is why Edge became a chrome reskin instead of what it was before.
Everything dies.
Yeah, but the worse they are the longer they live apparently.
Luckily, that's something you can change!
To avoid a visit by the FBI, I will say no its not.
Ah an american, in their natural habitat of giving up before even trying. Nothing can ever change, no point, etc. etc.
That's just not true. You can always murder a bunch of innocent people or make it more racist. Try understanding a culture before you talk shit next time.
You sound like onna those communists Mr Reagan told me is, like, ten times more scary than people different colours to me.
Don't type! I'm armed!
They aren't saying they're giving up, we just avoid posting certain comments to avoid potential scrutiny from the surveillance panopticon.
What an odd thing to say from the "land of the free"
Microsoft "tried" about as well as a quadraplegic "tries" free climbing
The winning move is not to do business with them, don't compete just exist and pretend they don't exist. Microslop played the game and lost, but it is a stupid silly game.
kinda hard to do when google holds the internet by the balls. and can twist at any moment to get what they want.
Microsoft and Mozilla employees have both accused them of doing this in the past, to sabotage non-chrome browsers on google services, to make chrome look better and drive users to chrome.
News to me, Does google hold this site by the balls? They have a lot of power yes, but they are not some unsinkable boat.
They only 'hold the internet by the balls' if you are using and reliant on Google products.
There are hundreds (if not more) tutorials and lists online to guide you through degoogling
I'm sure we can get thousands of websites and every major corporation to degoogle cause you said they should.
Where did I say they should? (I do think it, but didn't say it).
The only person here that spoke supposed 'facts' was you, saying that Google holds the internet by the balls. Which is true only in your corner of the world. Google definitely has a majority control, but we already have a big (and growing) movement with European Digital Sovereignity, De-Googling and loads of others.
Up to you if you want to let Google hold the internet that you use 'by the balls'.
All the FF forks are the same. Soft forks.
Pale Moon is not a soft fork.
Define soft fork
Can hold spaghetti but not a meatball 😔
ohhh, thanks!
