I’m telling you, the average person nowadays (if they even use a desktop/laptop computer at all!) just uses the browser and basically nothing else ever. Maybe an office suite. Chromebooks are perfect for them.
Probably schools, those bad boys are pretty much designed to be used in schools. They are easy for the sysadmin to manage and they are easy to use for the student. They charge fast and stay charged for a long time, and most things a student would need can be found online. They also make it harder for a student to brick their own computer or do things they shouldn’t. Even if they are horribly Google-ridden, they do work well in schools.
Eh? They’re fine, especially now that they can run Android apps.
At least, for the kind of person who does 99% of their computing in a browser. Which nowadays is actually quite a huge percentage…
Not for me, but I don’t hate them at all. For what they do they are quick and reliable. I’m just not the intended consumer
I am struggling to figure out who the intended consumer is in the first place. 🤣

Yes, I know. I was being facetious. I cannot help but hate all things Google.
Yeah it would be cool if we could have a Firefox version.
RIP Firefox version.

arcvm is completely screwing the android support on Chromebooks.
they should have nixed it when they realized that aarch64 support was impossible.
