It’s still quick to load, quick to perform and easy to use. Oh, Chrome was also the first to adopt a rapid release cycle, so if you’re fed up with a new browser number appearing in the About menu every few months, you can thank Google for that too.Ĭhrome may no longer look like the dazzling young starlet, but it more than holds its own against the competition. Chrome was the first to provide a resource-friendly browser that loaded quickly and didn’t suck the life out of your system, although again the competition has now caught up – and in some cases – surpassed its achievements.

Both browsers have improved massively in recent years, but part of that improvement is down to the growth in rival browsers like Google’s open-source alternative.Ĭhrome is no longer the young upstart it once was, and its pioneering spirit is often forgotten in the mists of time. Usually commercial software or games are produced for sale or to serve a commercial purpose.Many people are happy to stick with the default browser set up when they fire up their computer for the first time, which means Edge if you’re a Windows 10 or 11 user and Safari if you’re on an Apple Mac.
