Firefox also implements manifest v3, just without the user-hostile restrictions.
The entire macromedia suite was so good. I had so much fun and learned so much as a teen.
Theoretically, what would the utility of AI summaries in Google Search if not getting exact information?
So what, you keep an ungoogled-chromium around and use it occasionally for compatibility, if you really need to. Doesn’t mean you are obligated to use it as your daily driver.
