I know weird opinion, but if it’s “Chrome only” it’s not the Web.
It’s Flash, but worse.

@rachelandrew @jamie I don’t think I see this on Google sites, except for maybe some rare exceptions.
Mostly ranting about (potentially underpaid and overworked) developers who don’t test in anything else and slap a “Chrome only” sticker on their stuff.
@jamie @thomasfuchs As the person responsible for Chrome developer content, if that happens on one of our sites, it's a mistake. There are clear guidelines about what a "web standard" or "on the standards track" means, and I try to make sure they are used correctly.
@thomasfuchs There was a period where I'd hear people say something was "a web standard" as soon as it landed in Chrome, even if it was still in early stages.
I don't hear it much these days, but I've also been less exposed to front-end things the past few years, so I don't know if it's still as prevalent.
@thomasfuchs not weird at all
@midzer oh my, there's so many people doing this
@thomasfuchs Who in the worlds builds websites for a single browser nowadays?
Or as Scott McNealy used to call it: CaptiveX.
@thomasfuchs It's ActiveX
