A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I mean, why do you even use chrome if google is your problem? :D
i don't.[^1] but like it or not, chrome dictates what the internet does now. there's no point in sites hosting jpegxl images if ~3% of their users will see it, and there's no point in firefox developing a decoder if no sites host jpegxl. so even though it's objectively better, and is highly supported by non-browser programmes; it has no recourse for gaining traction on the web
