Is Chrome the new IE? – Magic Lasso Adblock
www.magiclasso.co
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.

    Firefox should be used alone for the fact that it has superior addon support for ad blockers. That’s a real world difference and reason, not just some ideology (as it was it in the past for me).

    Agreed! Up till now, it was on par with chrome for functionality / user experience. Moving forward it will be better because it will still have proper ad-blockers
