Ever try using Google's sites in Firefox or Safari? Most people use Google services and started using Chrome because of Google hounding them to switch. Hell, every major site says to just use Chrome now, and if a real Chrome ever comes out for iPhone, people will just download Chrome because it's what they use on their computer.
Sincerely, a frustrated Firefox and Safari user
And the fact that Chrome has a virtual monopoly on the browser market isn't going to help them either. Other than Firefox and Safari, every other browser is Chrome, and most web devs only test on Chrome.
It's IE all over again, and I'm a bit scared that iOS's app store restrictions are the only thing stopping Chrome from being a complete monopoly.
That is cheap, but if you go to Google's own page about Chromebooks, the options you see there are all in regular laptop pricing territory. Does anyone actually buy Pixelbooks or gaming Chromebooks?
I'm wondering the same thing. Chromebooks cost way too much for what they are.
Yes, I'm aware of that. But within the Linux community, the majority seem to prefer Android since it's based on Linux specifically, and it's not Apple. I also like macOS partly because of its BSD heritage.
Yeah, I personally prefer SSH for this task, and I also like that it works with both Linux and Mac wirelessly.
Say what you will, but this article actually does a pretty good job summing up why I don't want to switch back to Android after trying my first iPhone. As a longtime Linux user, I naturally thought I'd be using Android for the foreseeable future, since it's Linux under the hood.
One of my friends got her first iPhone, and she talked me into giving it a try, and while I was lost for a while, I was quickly blown away by how much better everything worked. And knowing that I'll get the latest software the same day as every other iPhone user, for at least five years, is pretty awesome.
Android could be a great thing, but manufacturers rely way too heavily on proprietary modifications to both the UI and drivers and have no incentive to provide updates for as long as Apple does, because they want you to buy a new phone. The fragmentation among Android manufacturers is real too. I don't want to have to root my phone and reflash the OS just to get a usable phone either.
Look, I know tons of people on the Internet are like "lol apple sux" but there is truth to this article. If you love Android, or flashing a custom OS, I'm certainly not going to tell you you're wrong. It's just not my cup of tea anymore.
I was responding to all the people who said "just use a fake email," bub...
Have you tried reading all the stuff below the email field?
I think the point of this post is all the stuff below the email field. Yikes.
Oh I know it was a lie. My school district sucked.
Absolutely. I'm not buying the "fair and square" argument. Firefox won over IE fair and square, by being better in every way, but that didn't last long enough.
