What about it running in the browser prevents it from staying on the machine? It even has a PWA install flow. Some of us totally disagree with this sentiment, OP. I'm tired of all …

Because despite the hyperbolic praise of the hackers here, Apple devices are worthless for some professional workloads. Before you ask, I'm one user who has a Razer Blade 16 (4090)…

Apple sells good hardware that's buoyed by a loud marketing department that covers its often pathetic software. Mac users touting a bunch of third-party apps as solutions to obviou…

Unfortunately, Android runs in a VM now, too. In many tasks, I've gotten better performance from Linux apps than Android counterparts. There's also the fact that the Android VM can…

Author here. App distribution is a major issue for the platform that I ran out of space to really talk about. Those driver-like things are largely extension APIs, but they were onc…

I gave another example as well. I'm also not spewing any "hate" or "bile" for an inanimate operating system. To make this easier to understand, please give me an example of what's …

Then it is correct? Many of the Fugu APIs don't work. I didn't say none. You can always tell someone hasn't developed consumer apps for ChromeOS when they white knight for it. If y…

I feel like Smartwatches are to phones what tablets are to laptops: a supplementary device that doesn't work as well without the primary computer. While many people might work enti…

If "that" is referring to both, it's incorrect. Google has said they will be "well into 2024" without any benefits brought by LaCrOS. That includes any theoretical extending of the…

None of those benefits are coming with LaCrOS[0]. I don't know why people keep repeating that when Google has never stated there will be more updates. [0] https://blog.crosexperts.…

I'm reading this on Harmonic from a Chromebook right now. Thanks for all the hard work!

I'm a big ChromeOS fan—even develop apps specifically for the platform—but I think this is the death knell for premium Chromebooks. Why should anyone else invest in high quality ha…

Over the last year, I've been teaching myself Javascript by developing on and for a Chromebook. Obviously, there's a ton of room for improvement but I've enjoyed using & making the…

If you're on a Chromebook, the default Twitter and YouTube Music install is a PWA.
