sometimes you can just palpably feel the cocaine exuding from early 2000s corp ceo’s
Bring back Netscape Navigator
And now people absolutely distrust and detest Chrome, Firefox is having an identity crisis on its hands, Edge is pretty much dead.
Browsers have gotten interestingly bad.
And now people absolutely distrust and detest Chrome
What “people” are you referring to? Because Chrome is the most popular browser, by a landslide.
Edge is pretty much dead.
I honestly don’t know why. If you are a Windows user and don’t care about privacy, you may just as well stick with Edge. As a Chromium web browser by a megacorp, it’s in no way worse than Chrome.
Honestly, not going with chrome means only one massive corp is stealing your data, not two.
I thought Chromium still phoned home to Google
It does, and there’s nothing you can do about it either, other than, obviously, switching to an alternative web browser.
All chromium based do, even something like Helium can’t remove that?
Unless they specifically say they don’t, they do.
I mean, edge is a viable option for enterprise. Works with gpos, etc. So easy to roll out and lockdown there.
I still think it’s garbage like every chromium browser but that’s its big sell.
Fuck Google. Fuck Microslop.
He also laughed at the iPhone, then years later, the windows phone devices bit the big one. He wasn’t very prescient, it seems.
I will say that I loved my Windows Phone. Way ahead of it’s time.
He also called linux a cancer
Cancer spreads quite quickly. Linux adoption sadly does not.
Well, on that one, he’s right.
We are everywhere, we are growing everyday, I don’t see what can stop that from now on.
Even Microsoft is open sourcing their shit. Azure is more than 50% Linux.
Fucking Microsoft has a Linux distro now!
We are cancer, resistance is futile something something waves hand
I came here to up-vote this comment.
This is what I recall as well.
Both are shit anyway, which we all know here. But normies love their Chrome.
Edge is just Chrome with a Microslop skin. They went from crushing Netscape so hard it got open sourced (mostly via monopoly shenanigans) to copying Google’s homework. And their attempts at mobile anything has been failure (Windows CE) after failure (Windows Phone) after failure (Windows for ARM).
If it weren’t for Office and companies’ undying love of Active Directory and Exchange, Microslop would be a memory and little more.
And outlook. Idk why but companies love outlook. And teams. 🤢🤮
Monkeyboy said that?
His spraining his ankle in that will always be funny.
KHTML won the browser war.
Gee, never held Steve Ballmer as pilar of accuracy.
Steve Balmer is a pill.
What is it with Steves in technology being just the worst (Woz is Woz, not Steve).
Poor Google, demoralised when another monopoly says it’s not going to break into it’s monopoly.
But fortunately Google used it’s search monopoly to aggressively push Chrome, and now all that data that Microsoft used to scrape, Google now does.
Happy ending for the monopoly.
Lol it only took 17 years to prove hom wrong.
Loooooooooooooooollll
He could have shrugged it off (on his way to the bank) after one year!
