    @rant1ng You don't ease someone into the correct choice by forcing the wrong choice on them first. Especially when they are relying on you to teach them what to do and how to do it correctly.

    Congrats on doing it exactly wrong.

    When YouTube loads like shit on FF and Google admits that it favored the shit out of Chrome when it came to YT and related browser performance.

    @Root I just don't think it matters. My grandmother is 84. Nothing the evil chromer can do will hurt her. I don't subscribe to the overzealous ideas of the evil Corp stealing all the data. Chill out.

    Whether you believe in the value of data or not doesn't matter; it's still valuable, still sought after, still abused. But think of yourself: all you really do is marketing and advertising. How can you possibly deny its value?

    But regardless, why are you trying to force your grandmother use a browser she doesn't like?

    "Simple transitions... teach her about open source... it's a process" -- you have no intention of doing that, and it doesn't make sense anyway. Introducing your 84 year old grandmother to open source? By not using open source? Right.

    I'm about to sleep and somehow expected a FOSS cultist plot twist like you calling your grandma a fascist for using "evil closed source software".

    i mean chrome is partially closed source too (albeit mostly open), but you get the joke...
