With a global browser market share of over 65%, Google’s Chrome has become the target of criticism and disdain, much like Microsoft’s Internet Explorer once was. Is Chrome facing similar challenges to Internet Explorer (IE) and will this lead to its downfall?

the quote [“Chrome is the new Internet Explorer”] tends to be misunderstood to mean that Chrome is like Internet Explorer was in 2009: most people were using it even though it was technically inferior … What we saw in 2009 [with Internet Explorer] was only the latest stage of something that had been going on for a while

I can’t stand when many of Google’s services have the view it with Google Chrome, install Google Chrome to use this service, and Google Chrome works best with our search engine. I feel like I’m going back to the ages of when Windows 98 would keep giving me text that would say “Use Internet Explorer to experience the most rewarding way to use the web.”

Chrome, is being used in the same way that Internet Explorer 6 was back in the day — with web developers primarily optimizing for Chrome and tweaking for rivals later … the results have been particularly evident throughout 2017. Google has been at the center of a lot of “works best with Chrome” messages we’re starting to see appear on the web.
