I think it’s pretty unfair to put all of the blame on everyone who uses a chromium browser, considering that most people with a computer have no idea what the hell you are talking about.
Google Chrome is the single most popular web browser. Everyone’s work uses it, everyone’s school uses it, why would they possibly question it? And then they discover a new browser someone recommended - why would they look into “chromium” and what it all means? It’s just not reasonable to expect of nearly the entire population at this stage.
Take your anger out on the company and educate people. This is a problem of education, not selfishness (on the part of the user).
I really don’t understand why people get so confrontational about this kind of thing. It’s a fucking web browser. I have a strong opinion about how they should be developed, but it has never been important to me to actually care what other people choose to use, especially not to the degree of lashing out at end users.
Educating people on their choices is good, but nobody should be getting this worked up over user choice.

Bro, eat a snickers…
What do you mean by “on the backs of others”? Are you saying that then using chrome impacts others that don’t use chrome?

Dude, touch some grass. You’re being way too aggro at someone explaining why a person might use a particular browser
Please, be(e) nice when using Beehaw. Enjoy a three day vacation from here.
Right, but if I take your perfectly reasonable and mature position then I can’t prove to the web how edgy and superior I am!
If you’ve found your way to the technology community on a federated lemmy instance, youre techy enough to take the blame for using chromium

I work for a large agency of the US government. We get the “choice” between chrome and edge.
