I'm still deprecating Google Chrome tho. I ran out of friends and family's browser instances, so now I've expanded to my neighbors! 🥸

Joy. So they bent to advertisers.

If you’re still using google chrome then maybe you should just lube up your bum and get what you deserve

Their whole business model is pleasing advertisers, for better or for worse. IMHO mostly for worse.

Isn't it wonderful that a single company is basically dictating how the internet will work, in defiance of every precedent set by the World Wide Web Consortium over decades?
