    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          If you'd told me in 1994 that Netscape would be non-existent so soon, I'd have laughed at you.

            I’m surprised at how small a share safari has given the sheer number of iPhones out there.

            The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

              I used Netscape for what seemed like years. Ran Firefox and Opera. Some Chrome, but mostly Edge nowadays.

                It’s rare that I find a website that breaks with safari, but when I do, chrome inevitably works.

                  I've been pretty happy with Edge and DuckDuckGo. Chrome is a big hog.

                    I knew someone around the year 2004 who worked for AOL (who I think owned Netscape at the time?). Anyway, they were asking me about an ad campaign to use Netscape and I was like "ummm, no one uses netscape anymore".

                          In the early days of OS X, I used OmniWeb. It was developed by a team that used to develop software for NeXTSTEP.

                                I used Lynx too, on VAX VMS, Sun Solaris, NetBSD, and Linux.

                                  That is interesting, I have never used Chrome. Right now, Safari with Duck Duck Go as the search engine.

                                  Maybe I will try Duck Duck Go as the browser.

                                        I use Brave for everything.
