“Google could be forced to sell Chrome” was the news in late november so I guess this a reaction to that.
I want Chrome to be sold, honestly.
I still don’t get why Linux Foundation helped Google out of that.
Why not firefox?
Because Librewolf exists already?
That’s based on Firefox…
Whoa whoa. Let’s pick up the build of Mozilla’s ditched namesake and confirm a future there, and then maybe consider their next discard. Wait; who’s got tbird? Can we rescue that first? Get their trash in ‘tip’ order, anyway.
Thunderbird is back in active deleopmemt though, and not just as a maintenance project.
Thunderbird and Firefox are fine, very actively maintained and adding features.
So the Linux Foundation is in Google’s pocket. Good to know,
That’s a pretty unfair kneejerk without receipts.
When it comes to a megacorp like Alphabet/Google, assuming foul play and bribery should always be the kneejerk.
This is surely a smokescreen for Google’s monopolization of Internet standards.
And even if weren’t, I cannot emphasize enough how much that list of companies should also NOT be in charge of setting open standards. Oligopoly, monopoly with the illusion of choice…
Oh, surely.
Wait. Non-profits looking to shepherd the upstream used by a dozen derivatives; that’s BAD now?
we remain committed to being the responsible steward of the Chromium project

So this neutral space is still subservient to Google’s whims.
