Every person's computer has many Electron applications, and each Electron application is a Chrome browser.
- pjmlp 3y agoWhich is why they only need one single copy of Chrome instead of Electron garbage.
- modo_mario 3y agoor firefox or the like. Let's not forget browsers without chromium exist just yet.
- GeneralMaximus 3y agoSadly, Firefox has abysmal support for PWAs on both mobile and desktop. I love Mozilla and Firefox -- and I still use it as my primary development browser -- but at this point Firefox is functionally worse than Chrome, Edge, and Safari on most axes.
- throwawa14223 3y agoThe lack of a bad feature is also a feature. Firefox is great precisely because it doesn't have this cruft.
- pjmlp 3y agoTo be real, only Safari actually matters as alternative to Chrome. Firefox is also my main browser, but that doesn't change the fact that its 3% market share has made it optional for project delivery acceptance testing. I hardly see it in any browser matrix nowadays.
- jmrm 3y agoFor me it's sad how I have to use Edge (because it's already included in Windows) due to many pages don't suporting Firefox. Google has made all they could to make both people and developers to use Chrome and Chrome-based browsers.
- coldtea 3y agoWell, Electron has all kinds of platform hooks that Chrome doesn't, so...
- dangrover 3y agoCan Chrome just hurry up and add those so we can be done with Electron?
- JohnFen 3y agoWell, not every person's computer.
