It is a bit of a matter of perspective. As far as Chromium remains open-source I
don't think the monoculture aspect is too problematic. Still, it sucks when som
e non-standard becomes so dominant it starts being difficult to use any alternat
ive. Thankfully, I think we are far from that point.
The only firefox fork I have ried s Pale Moon. It was ok, but the developpers we
re assholes and the whole deal was very Windows centric. They had a very "just u
se Windows" vibe that got them out of many repositories.
