“Chrome exists to serve Google search.”

The US v. Google antitrust case may be frustratingly shrouded in secrecy, but occasionally we get some fun nuggets. The quote above comes from an internal email sent by Google’s Jim Kolotouros, VP of Android Platform Partnerships. “Chrome exists to serve Google search,” he writes. “If it cannot do that because it is regulated to be set by the user, the value of users using Chrome goes to almost zero (for me).”

    Indeed.

    As Orion exists to complement Kagi search.

    Orion can be used fine with anything else though too circa the time of this post. Highly recommend both.

      I’ve been loving Kagi, but I have no particular need for their browser.

      ETA: Oh, I see it’s only for iOS and macOS anyway. Maybe that ecosystem needed it, but I wouldn’t know.

        Yep, though Linux is coming next “soon”.

        I like that Orion (via Kagi as the business) is directly aligned with MY interests as a human.

        Safari, I’m generally a fan of too as Apple is–for now–generally aligned with customer; but mostly annoyed that they force an extension to use a search not in their list. Also find the adblocking just “ok” in Safari.
