    The whole point is that non-Chromium browsers might lose functionality on a significant portion of major websites. Imagine if Amazon, Netflix, and Youtube suddenly stopped working in Firefox. How many Firefox users would tolerate that?

        Sure, because the average user won’t think his Firefox to be broken and just switch to chrome altogether. Chrome has no issue with that site after all. Once enough pages have it even most technically inclined people will probably not want to constantly juggle between browsers, just to use their banking site or whatever.

        I don’t care about x thing, it doesn’t affect me

        Then next year

        Why are they killing “y thing that affects me”

        Attitudes like that are a big factor in our current culture war.
