Is Chrome the new IE? – Magic Lasso Adblock

With a global browser market share of over 65%, Google’s Chrome has become the target of criticism and disdain, much like Microsoft’s Internet Explorer once was. Is Chrome facing similar challenges to Internet Explorer (IE) and will this lead to its downfall?

Bloated and complacent, Chrome might be on the path to playing the same role as IE was playing 15 years ago, shunned by developers and technologically inferior to other browsers.

    Chromium does do the EEE from Microsoft. (Embrace, extend, extinguish) Last time I checked web Bluetooth and web USB were Chromium only because they aren’t standard.

    Also Chromium often writes the standard since they control the browser. Jpeg XL and Mv3 ring a bell?

    I don’t think it is quite fair to call them IE but Chromium isn’t good
