Who the hell cares? Take a deep breath of chill the fuck out and don't read so much into things.
I doubt they spent much time debating which browsers to add here, or that this came out of a strategy meeting with Zuckerberg. I wouldn't be surprised if this was designed before Chrome was popular (perhaps with some styling fixes since then).
Even if they did exclude Chrome intentionally, they are entitled to promote whichever browsers they want to promote for whichever reasonable non-evil reasons they want.
- patrickaljord 14y agoWas it designed before Safari too? This is really pathetic. Nothing to get mad at but still ridiculous from Facebook.
- aneth 14y ago"really pathetic"? I'm going to assume you've never done anything so pathetic in your life as to leave a web page with something less than the latest, greatest, most open sourcey, freedom-loving information.
- RegEx 14y agoDamn, you take things really personally.
- jsprinkles 14y agoHow is that him taking it personally, exactly? He's just giving an opinion, quite colorfully.
- aneth 14y agoThank you. I'd like to agree :) Nothing personal about it.
- AznHisoka 14y agoWhat an oxymoron. This is a FORUM. People are supposed to voice their opinions.
- RegEx 14y agoBut why get such an attitude over nothing? Seems pretty silly.
- AznHisoka 14y agoshrugs pale blue dot...
- aneth 14y agoI'm not sure what attitude you are referring to. You may be reading a bit too much into this. I was simply trying to draw some perspective - "really pathetic" is a bit of an overstatement for not linking to Chrome on a browser recommendation page, and we all make plenty of oversights each and every day, so shitting on others for them is bound to undermine your karma.
- ok_craig 14y ago"Who the hell cares? Take a deep breath of chill the fuck out and don't read so much into things" is the attitude being referred to. It isn't exactly "Hi, you should consider this viewpoint..."
- aneth 14y agoExcuse me for having an emotional response. I will try to behave more drone like in the future in order to avoid causing distress to sensitive humans.
- Arelius 14y agoIs it? With all the modern webkit only extensions and prefix usage, FB promoting browser diversity seems like strictly a good thing!
- DrJokepu 14y agoYou don't need to download Safari on the Mac and Safari on Windows is, well, not the best experience ever so I understand them not actively recommending it.
- RandallBrown 14y agoI actually saw someone in the wild using safari on windows. It was quite a shock.
- AshleysBrain 14y agoAgreed, I would guess that very few people ever see this page, so it's likely to have a very small overall impact even though it comes from Facebook.
