    For me, the worst thing about April Fool's day is that Think Geek shut down in...2019? They always had a great joke products on the front page, and every once in a while they'd actually make and sell some of them.

    I almost got got by the Palworld one that came out late yesterday. They are Japanese so it caught me off guard when it wasn't April 01 for me yet.

    IGN did one about Nintendo announcing a Virtual Boy Pro that you slot a Switch into a la Google Cardboard. That one almost got me, until I got deeper into the article and saw some of the more ridiculous quotes.

    If it wasn't a joke, perhaps it might actually get them somewhere at this point

    It's the last major holdout against the entire internet being consumed by chromium, so while it might attract a certain demographic, it would be really bad for society

    The last major holdout that is also financially dependant on Google. Chromium has consumed the internet in all but name.

    If they forced separation between chromium and Google I would say go for it, but as it's standing there is way too much power for Google to be like hey nudge nudge do it this way and then they would control the entire ecosystem

    With that being said I do still think that there should be some form of competition regardless
