    They also have a much longer history than Chrome. Kinda glad they disallowed the extensions that had near unfettered access to browser internals.

    Qualcomm is no supporter of AV1 so they shouldn't have been included in that list. That being said, there's plenty of other hardware makers and licensors in the Alliance.
