like, browsers are probably more complex than the operating systems they run on at this point and no one will want to fund their development
which will mean that maintaining chromium will be untenable
and they want to pull the plug on firefox's only meaningful source of funding at the same time...Haelwenn /элвэн/ :triskell: likes this. -

Cinnamon (cinnamon@mk.absturztau.be)'s status on Thursday, 21-Nov-2024 22:36:04 JST Cinnamon @novenary@akko.wtf Year 3000 A.D., history class:
"So... yes, there were some ancient civilizations that went suddenly extinct:
- The Mayan civilization cut too many trees, caused a rise of +6ºC in temperature that caused droughts.
- The Khmer empire saw climate changes that transformed their stable water cycle into droughts and floods.
- The Western civilization developed a web browser monoculture, extinguishing alternatives, only to see that very same mainstream browser collapsing. They couldn't use the Internet anymore and their civilization came to an end."
