No really I was now watching the people rightfully complaining I've sent a borked chromium to latest TW snapshot and was wondering how popular the browsers are and whether we should not set the chromium instead of firefox as default or to keep them both on the dvd tested...
I prefer Firefox for the very simple reason that Mozilla is easier to work with as an upstream than Google. Google is extremely difficult and basically if you fix a bug that doesn't concern anything they are using, they simply don't care.
"What does this fix? Big-endian targets? Don't care, go away!"
or they reinvent with things like "GN" where you need to download a complete x86_64 chroot to even build it which is, of course, not portable at all.
Chromium might be open source, but it's Google's own project and not a community project.
Yea I don't honestly expect us to switch the default unless the poll fails really abysmally for the Firefox.
But still it will allow me to figure out how much of the userbase is using the chromium and how much eye we should keep on it and how to test it.
On current Tumbleweed with the pattern changes you can uninstall Firefox and keep just chromium, which is not the case for anything older (Thank you Simotek).
Maybe I should poke people @SUSE too so we get votes from employees too.
perhaps you should even post this on opensuse@opensuse.org... Talking about _userbase_ on a mailing list purely dedicated to _development_ is most likely not going to be representative at all... Cheers. l8er manfred
