Still no Google Chrome for Linux -> byebye Chrome for me

Saturday, January 10th, 2009

Google, while not doing any evil and supporting open source and all, is really screwing up it’s browser by simply only providing a decent build for window, even in with it’s latest 2.0 pre-beta (whatever the hell that might mean, where are the days when an alpha was an alpha build and a beta was a beta)

We all should have known this would be the case, it’s a company and in the end, the numbers are against us linux users. Who cares if a substantial part of the tech community runs linux or apple, it’s a browser for the end user!

This little joyride has gone on long enough, back to firefox, opera and some konqueror for me. Really looking forward to firefox 3.1 by the way, native ogg theora support and omg-faster-than-chrome-javascript!

I should have known that ‘comic’ looked too neat for an app targeting linux + not that I could live without my firefox extensions anyways :-)

So, although I’ve used and not especially dislike chrome, getting stuck on a single platform browser is the last of my intentions. Uninstalled baby!

It really is!

If it’s half as good as the comic it’s gonna be nice.

UPDATE: okay, it is nice.
