i wish firefox wasn’t neutered on ios

That one is on apple tho.

Hoping for more EU intervention on those tools.

Although I agree that Firefox should be freed on iOS, but should chrome?

A significant amount of browsers on iOS would probably move to blink/chromium the first chance they get(like they do on Android), which only serves to strengthen Google's monopoly in the space.

The alternative would be ... The EU rules that only webkit and Firefox are allowed on iOS...? That's not happening, nor should it. (Fuck Google still though, I agree with your stance there)

Better than apple doing whatever the fuck they want. Imagine Microsoft would have only allowed IE based browsers on windows. We would still be in the IE days, because why put work into something when you can just force people to use it?

At least with chrome it is used because it is a pretty competent engine.

I mean if I was dictator I would do this... But some people would hate me for it and they'd have a decent argument to make. It won't happen... But yeah, fuck googl cannot be said enough

Yes, equal ground should be given to all. Unfortunately, you're right about Chromium but that doesn't mean we shouldn't play fair.
