TIL Samsung makes a browser.

How else are you going to browse the web on your fridge?

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 7 points 11 months ago

Yeah, comes on Samsung phones and tablets.

Samsung loves bloat. Their attempt at creating an ecosystem and therefore lock in to keep using their devices. I like Samsung hardware but their software is shit.
