Browser Support • Re: Why is Pale Moon so slow?

Like Maestro and Athenian say, this is not just some grumble or in-fighting, it's an intentional moving target from a Big Tech company with (tens of) thousands more resources and manpower than an independent browser/engine.

googles near-monopoly, and definitely monoculture is performing vertical integration of virtually all internet points of access. From smartphone (pixel) to smartphone OS (android) to smartphone browser (chromium webview) to desktop browser (chromium) to captcha (recaptcha) and CDN (firebase) to internet/browser "standards" (WHATWG) to site frameworks (using V8 JS) to third party site content (gfonts, gstatic, tag manager, ads, etc), to sites themselves (google search, virustotal, youtube, etc) or apps/programs (flutter, electron, CEF, etc). That's not even mentioning their funding of "competitors" (apple/firefox "search" deals) or how Safari and Firefox (and hence reskins of those) directly lift and incorporate google tech like WideWine, Safe Browsing list, Web RTC, Web Extensions, etc, to keep up themselves. Everything google do, like rapid release cycles constantly pushing new or re-writing "old" API's, or FLoC/Topics/WEI/PerformanceObserver, is totally geared towards pushing out competitors or have them fall in line.
