And since you won't be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.

The community feedback is... interesting to say the least.

Will people stop using Chrome now?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Let's be honest: No.

Chrome is to the web what the Steam is to gaming: Chrome is the web, and it all started years ago. “Better with Chrome” was yet another sign on the road to make WebKit the only way to display a web page, yet, it continues to grow, in Android, Electron, IOS, everywhere.

This proposal is an absolute logical step forward, no surprise here.
