Chrome uses WebKit, safaris engine.
Comment on Google Chrome disables uBlock Origin for some in Manifest v3 rollout
bdonvr@thelemmy.club 1 day agoIn the past 10 years it’s pretty much just been Firefox, Safari, Explorer/Edge, and Chrome. 99% of browsers are just skinned Chrome. Even Edge now. Opera’s engine died in 2013.

Chrome forked Webkit in 2012 to create Blink. It is reasonable to assume they have somewhat diverged since.

They’re developed separately. It’s a hard fork to I consider them different.

That’s also hugely in part because Apple develops Webkit at a snails pace. Some say they gimp their own rendring engine so that it isn’t competitive with native applications from the App Store. This way, there’s less incentive for developers to make web-apps to avoid the 30% app store tax.

Man I haven’t been around that long but I feel like some of my knowledge is outdated and I have to start with “a long time ago in a galaxy far far away” because I stopped paying attention

Yup. Hence, the reason I originally suggested to use Firefox, only because it’s not built on Chromium.

Just FYI, the word “hence” literally means “for this reason”. So you just said “for this reason the reason” lol.
