I just wonder how much of Chome's browser share Google is willing to lose over this.
The article mentions people moving from Chrome to Edge to try and get around this. With how ubiquitous Chromium is as an engine behind a wide range of browsers, it seems most people won't actually move away from a browser that Google has some control over.
IMO, one of the best Chromium based browsers is Vivaldi.
- Microsoft threw in the towel on Edge HTML.
- Opera gave up on Presto (the source code for this leaked at one point in time).
- Brave was a decent choice for a while. It's controversial now.
- Avast and Comodo AV companies have their own Chromium.
- Amazon Silk is mobile Chromium for Amazon's devices.
- Samsung Internet is mobile Chromium for Samsung devices.
- Yandex search has a Chromium browser.
There's more than this but these are the big names.
