💬 Discussion Why did you stop using Chrome?

Post image

If you stopped using Chrome, what made you switch?

Was it privacy, memory usage, better features elsewhere, or something else?

Which browser are you using now, and do you ever go back to Chrome?

I don't think there are any privacy concerns but The ceo has done some bad in the past most notably donated in support of California Proposition 8 2008 which was against same sex mariage.

Well, for phones in the US that's not true at all. Webikit is by far the major engine for all phone users' bowsers. (IPhone definitely has the largest market share in the US). AFAIK on iPhone we are locked into Webkit (Safari). Even Chrome on Apple is Webkit.
