    And like that, they just ensured that I’d sooner use Edge than go back to anything with the faintest whiff of Chrome in it

        Please tell me you’re fucking about

        Granted I don’t think anything will happen to Firefox for a while; but please tell me you’re fucking about

          Pretty much every single browser today with the exception of Safari and Firefox are built on top of chromium. Google owns it and will direct it whatever way it wants.

          If Firefox market share continues the small amount it is, there’s a good chance that websites will just block anything not running on chromium after v3 goes out. As it’ll be a decent price to pay to lose 4% of your users but force the other 96% to watch ads that they can’t block anymore.

          That’s why I tell everyone please use Firefox.

        No, it’s a fork of Chromium. Google says they’re blocking uBlock Origin in Chrome, not Chromium
