Remember when IE8 was a thing, and it didn't receive a major update in 10 years, holding back some of the more important advancements in JavaScript and CSS. I remember that. My issues with Chrome are strictly related to how it handles security: - It will prevent access to sites using SHA1 HTTPS in the next 10 years, which can be frustrating on internal networks and older websites. - It complains about downloading some files on SourceForge and other sites with the same message as it would with certain types of viruses. This does nothing but spread ignorance. - It complains when a file isn't commonly downloaded, making you click through menus in order to keep the file. - It saves personal details and passwords automatically if the user ignores the (very small) prompt asking if they want to save them. - NO data wiping feature like Firefox has (Can wipe history, cookies, bookmarks etc for 5 minutes, two hours or 24 hours) - There was a big scandal a year or two where companies bought out popular add-on companies and released updates which contained viruses and adware. Since Chrome auto-updates add-ons without prompting the user, and they don't check add-on updates for viruses, millions of computers became infected for (what appeared to be) no reason. - There's many fraudulent mirrors for Chrome which are actively advertised at the top of Google searches for it, ironically enough. - Google states in their TOU for Chrome add-on/app development that they reserve the right to alter (read: Sabotage) apps after they are released on Google Play (or whatever it's called, I forget) I don't support Google development really at all, as their software to me seems impractical and politically motivated. I like to have my software 'just work', without someone else telling me how I should be browsing, thanks. Same goes with Gmail, which fucks with my school email and won't let me read it unless I merge two accounts. Google ought to just stick to search engines, maps, and as a neutral source of information, like code base hosting. They aren't that great at much else to me, really.
