| > convince people to use Firefox/Safari/Opera What would that change? These browsers implement the same standards Chrome does, and on top they probably implement the non-standards that Chrome imposes, because people will still want to use Google Meet and stuff. So this at least means to convince people not to use Google Meet and stuff. This goes to show that indeed the web is broken. > convince webdevs to support/prefer non-Chromium engines I guess the people who need convincing are not the devs, but their superiors. See https://www.baldurbjarnason.com/2021/software-crisis-2/ > the unstated assumption that any new browser must be simple enough to be built by a single person, entirely from scratch, is an arbitrary technical limit based on political ideals First of all, I'm not sure if anyone really said that it had to be achieved "by a single person". Second of all, I don't understand why its political nature should devalue the argument. At any rate, it has been argued that the web is at fault, the standards are problematic, etc., so let's not argue about minor details. |
