The inherent problem with creating a new browser/platform is getting people to create addons/extensions for it.
If you don’t think Google could do this, think again. Google has an iron grip on the Chromium project.
From the beginning of its time with Google, Android was touted as THE open-source phone operating system. The Android Open Source Project was used by several projects to create their own version of Android.

Pretty much any american foundation has been capture by this cultural revolution occurring in the USA. It’s not very close but there are some parallels to the Chinese cultural revolution, where a country cuts off its nose in spite of its face. IMO the European software foundations are less affected by sociopolitical upheaval happening in the states. KDE, Debian, and other European based FOSS programs haven’t had to jump through the same hoops. I hope KDE Falkon gets a resurgence because of this.
What are you talking about and what does that have to do with my comment?

That still has nothing to do with the comment I left that you replied to. Find somewhere else to soapbox.
Sorry bud, I can soapbox anywhere I want on Lemmy, just like you friend! If you don’t like what I have to say you can down vote me, but telling me to go away is immature.
If you don’t see the connection to what I’m saying to what you wrote then that’s your lack of understanding, not mine or others.
Oh, okay. Then the response I’m looking for is,

Certainly your right to roll your eyes, much like I’m rolling my eyes at your response 😉
