The problems with the Chrome store are likely not over. What good is it if you have to stir up half the internet to get through their process?

It's not as if developers can go to other platforms since Chrome has 70% of the market. Most of us in tech are in it to innovate and disrupt but hard to do that if everything is a Google or Amazon monopoly.

If Chrome is broken then the browser market is broken. Devs should organize to solve this since Google doesn't seem to be paying attention.

We need to collect and organize feedback from those experiencing problems which is everyone. Get it to antitrust folks in the EU and DOJ to start an investigation (to add to their other investigations). If Google knows the EU and Feds are watching, they might start behaving.
