Could you please elaborate why you hope 'Chrome gets banned'?

I understand not being fond of the its ubiquity, especially with many Websites now requiring Chrome. And Google is allegedly abusing their dominant position. But banning it? Why?



Browser monoculture = shitty internet future.


And the solution to that is (almost certainly illegal, under the new regulations) market manipulation by a direct competitor?


Hey I’m just dreaming here, not like offering legal advice.


So the solution to a browser monoculture is to... approve fewer browsers? Seems backwards to me.


Yes, that’s right. Not fewer at random though.
