what i don't get is all the people complaining about google and at the same time using their browser...
i believe that trying to steer masses away from chrome would be more useful in the long run than trying to make it work
Unfortunately chromebooks have been one of the cheapest options for a whole now and have been being introduced all over school systems in the US so kids are used to them and uninformed parents will continue to buy what they know meete school requirements.
Everyone that can definitely should switch to Firefox.
We had B2G (Boot to Gecko) for a while. We could have had FxOS on laptops instead of one shitty midrange phone & maybe it would have worked. ๐
Most people are not accessing the internet via a Chromebook.
Never said they were. But it's foolish to ignore the significant populations of school children and older non technical people who have been reccomended the cheapest thing that won't get viruses and let's them get on Facebook and YouTube.
