Chrome Is The New IE, or, How To Write a Clickbait Title

April 13, 2021

I got my first ever, “First you will need Google Chrome and install XXX Chrome Extension,” message from a webapp today. I know it's been coming, heck, even the company I work for, “prefers Chrome,” and, “Develops on Chrome,” but as an avid Firefox user since 2004, it makes me a bit sad. Especially since modern day Firefox is just awesome. Heck, to show my support I even use Mozilla VPN.

I know people have strong opinions about Mozilla: their cozy relationship with Google search revenue; their non-browser-related initiatives; their abandonment of non-browser productivity tools like Thunderbird; their acquisition of seemingly-frivolous tools like Pocket... I get it.

But at the end of the day, I still like 'em.
