No problem. It is. I an curious how you feel about that. The engine is a bit agnostic of the rendering layer (we will have a similarly powerful iOS app at some point too).
I generally oppose anything Chromium, because it's ushering in a return to the shitty days of "this site is best viewed in Microsoft Explorer."
But... not sure what an independent developer is to do about that.
Firefox is just as (or more) open source as Chromium. If I wanted to fork a browser that’s where I’d start.
I dislike it because chromium is almost a monoculture and Google controls it. I’m not diametrically opposed to chromium based browsers but I might be more hesitant to switch.
I was excited for a moment, when I saw that someone was working on a new browser, then I admit that I felt a bit disappointed to read this. I think we need more rendering engines out there, or at least wider distribution of the current ones to get chromium‘s market share down.
I like this if it gives me access to my chrome extensions- can’t live without some of them. Non-chromium is a non-starter because of this
