    As a web dev: Remember IE6? The stagnation, self-prioritization with nonstandard features, laden with spyware? That’s Chrome now. They’ll egg websites into enabling proprietaryBullshitStandard() when it’s still just webkitProprietaryBullshitStandard() and give little room for discussion. Their “move fast and break the web” attitude is why Edge, which used to be a unique browser maintaining a third competing rendering engine, gave up and became a Chrome fork. The team at Microsoft couldn’t even keep up with Chrome’s bullshit, and now 90% of the browsers people list just use their engine.
