They want everything to be Chrome.įirefox doesn't have as much user share because of aforementioned browser. AMP, steering away from semantic web, etc. It's pretty obvious that Google is trying to kill the web.

Nobody really bothers with personal websites or blogs anymore since the majority of the population get their news from social media. The social media platforms took over from websites.

We can't easily install the software we want on our devices (iPhone especially, but Android also to an extent). Most people are using less configurable computers: phones. We've lost so much since the 90's and 00's.
