Again, I think there are some nuances to it, but if you zoom out and you look at all the problems we have with big tech, Chrome is not it.

Chrome won on merits.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#474 โ€“ DHH: Future of Programming, AI, Ruby on Rails, Productivity & Parenting

I begrudgingly have switched to Chrome on that realization alone.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#474 โ€“ DHH: Future of Programming, AI, Ruby on Rails, Productivity & Parenting

which is actually the search engine that I use.
