Maybe im a dumbass, but im currently using an entire operating system that is community funded, and made. How is it that its possible to do it with linux, and all the things that go with linux, but a web browser can't do it without getting into ads? Why are web browsers so special that they just need oogles and oogles of money to function?

sadly, the web has become so complex and it changes so fast that it's now almost impossible to keep up with the standard, so only google and mozilla are able to do it

thanks google!
