  • Not really Steam’s fault, their app is built in a chromium browser, which stopped supporting those OSes a few years ago. A perfect example of Google having too much control over the Internet. This is what happens when big companies are allowed to purchase their competitors.

    Edit: people in this thread are either really forgetting how much trust google used to have with basically the entire Internet. They were seen as the “good guys” for a long time.

    Or they’re forgetting how unique and revolutionary chromium based desktop apps were when they first came out. It is a colossal pain in the ass to create a modern browser, if you have a web page in your desktop app like steam does, it quickly became a very difficult, time consuming, and virtually fruitless endeavor to develop a headless browser just to sit within your desktop app when you could just go with chromium.

    To name a few big ones for me:

    • spoilers

    • flairs/tagging

    • a better mod portal

    • automod bots

    • database stability

    • wiki support

    • saved posts being in the ORDER I SAVED THEM not the order they were posted. That’s basic functionality man!

    ITT:

    • Following users

    • better crossposting

    • more users ( I think the other issues cause this one a bit)
