Try to tell the Linux users on here that you prefer to use Windows...

This drives me nuts. I like Chrome. It's simple, it's fast, the extensions I want run on it (for now), and I love the Google Account Sync because I have an Android phone. This greatly pisses off people for whatever reason, despite the fact I've never had a bad opinion about Firefox and love what they're doing too, and I never criticize anyone for choosing Firefox.

As with everything open source communities need nuance and understanding, otherwise they start to feel like cults.

The nuance is recognising the Google hegemony is supported by choosing Chrome.

The understanding is realising what is happening to the open web as a result.
