I don't understand these attacks on Google and Chrome. Yes, Blink in general and Chrome in particular are dominant. Yes, Google has a shitload of money. But at least it invests its money in the web platform, which, if you are a web developer, you ought to be grateful for. Apple, in comparison, also has a shitload of money; but until a couple of years ago, didn't seem overeager to invest in web. As for shrunken browser xhoice, isn't it easier for developers to target a few platforms than a host of diverging ones? When you are not in control of the client platform isn't it a relief to have as little variability - and hence as much predictability - as possible? Isn't this the closest thing to being in control?
