      Multiple Chromium browsers that probably send telemetry to Google, no less.

      I’d be slightly less hateful of Electron if it used a non-Google engine, but alas Chrome is the new 90’s Internet Explorer and everyone needs to bend over backwards to it.

          AKA prehistoric Firefox (as in Firefox used the same codebase as Netscape, though I’m not sure if that’s still true after Firefox Quantum)
