It's a fairly obvious truth. Chrome has a 70% browser marketshare, with the only appreciable alternative being Safari. If Chrome (the actual Chrome and not just a skinned Safari) were allowed on Apple's platforms, overnight a crapload of websites would throw a "Made for Chrome" banner up, dismiss anyone on "unsupported" browsers, and we would rapidly move to a Chrome-only world.

We already went through this in the IE era, and it was an ugly period. We don't need to do that again. That isn't to say we need to endure the status quo, but we are in a dangerous situation where the fixes aren't easy or obvious.

There's nothing obvious about it.

You're literally defending a megacorporations monopoly and abuse of users so they can continue denying free choice to people using phones.

You're literally saying that the browser the users are right now forced to used by a megacorporation is so bad, they would refuse to use it in the future. And then you double down on the bootlicking by demanding that they continue forcing the use of their supposedly inferior product.

(After all, if the product is actually good, why would people switch?)

And with that you're entrenching megabillionare interests and outright banning creation of opensource.

Be better.

They’re bringing up a valid point that has no indication of heavy support one way or another and you call it corporate boot licking.

How can you say this nonsense so uncritically?
