Government of which country or countries? You wouldn't think they would stay in the US if what you said will happen, would you?

If they took 0.5 %,

Took from what? Is this about the revenue share again? Stop listening to that idiot Timmy.

We know that many others take the same %% so I could say even if they took 50% they wouldn't deliver a product as good as Steam.

Valve just takes 10% more than everyone else

What do you mean? 30% is used by almost every digital store.

Because that leads to the degradation of the software? Or because they provide most of the valid feedback? Or because that would help more users become more advanced?

I don't know what do you think I wanted. I wanted to understand what American people think. If they like to avoid hard answers, it seems very similar to avoiding necessary solutions (at this point it may seem I support violence but I don't). The scenario is becoming bad but everyone seems fine just doing nothing, as if people lost the right to affect anything.

That didn't answer my question.

This makes it sound like non-political violence is acceptable...

You said there are too many stupid users, then you said the software has to suit them. I see this as a problem when software targets stupid users because then the rest suffer from it being less convenient for them.

Also I think it's hilarious how things become more complex for developers who should actually have the power to fork things in order to make them more suitable for advanced users. And apple is a good example of that. I would be a huge iphone fan if it wasn't a walled garden in software terms.

Just wondering would it be any better if he was shot dead?

I know. This is not about how dumb users are, it's about how dumb the software becomes with time.

I think most things in browsers got degraded thanks to Google, but also due to that specific way of thinking.

That's not an opinion. That's the lack of it. Plus a few grams of whataboutism. You're a victim of Russian propaganda agents.

find sensible solutions

For example? How do you do that with terrorists?

Fingerbender more like.

Russia's anti-terrorism goals

You'll say this is a quote. The fact that you rely on this very phrase is hilarious. Either Putin equals Russia for you or you accept that he is not a terrorist.

That's better in all cases. But the original comment sounded like "look how I can go to this authoritarian county, encounter police who would ask me for my phone, and remain free and safe afterwards". That would not be a good idea.

So you are okay with not getting your phone back from authorities...

That's not an expectation. The experience is that this became a reality thanks to google, and that it will only get worse in the future. More competition within browsers is the expectation. Better chance for better frameworks to emerge. Eventually it may cause google code to shift into a better overall state too.

When trying to render a relatively simple page consisting few thousands of text lines in a table, any current browser will cause mouse cursor to lag for some time, then you'll discover it consumes at least 2 GB ~ 4 GB of RAM. YouTube lags like I have 2 cores instead of 16. Any electron app is either clunky or too clunky, also either hungry or too hungry.

I'm sorry but I don't have time to look up other cases.

I can't understand how people can continue relying on chrome and derivatives like electron, CEF etc. and not see it as a problem.
