A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

If they have 34.5 billion lying around, why don’t they make a new browser themselves?

Making a new browser is easy. They want to buy a near monopoly over the browser market, not a browser.

Making a new browser is easy.

Then why doesn't anyone else do it? We have only 3 real browsers.

Making a browser is ridiculously hard. Getting people to use it even harder.
