Remember (P)NaCl? Or WebSQL? Google has a bad reputation for pushing poorly designed web "standards". Thanks to Mozilla we then got asm.js, wich evolved into Wasm and ultimately replaced NaCl. Now imagine there was one engine and

It's true though. You see something similar with the address bar: Chrome's is pretty horrible for accessing history or bookmarks, it instead tries to push you to do a search. Firefox has much richer information here.

To be honest I only notice that with movies. Books are fine, TV show episodes are usually fine, but long movies I can have a hard time concentrating on. Maybe because I can easily change my reading speed to keep my mind occupied.

Twitter thread from a vaccine developer: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1464222680731820043.html A lot of speculation still, but it's not all bad so far.
