I mean fuck Google and all, but this is just an announcement that they are copying Firefox's way of display download information. Is there something inherently wrong with that?

It's how they are talking in the blog post... You don't see it?
I mean is this your first time hearing corporate/marketing speech on the internet? I don't like it myself either, but it is not like it kills children in africa...
*yet
** that we know of
Are you sure this wasn’t written by some poor intern under some form of duress?
“With the download tray, you can see a list of all your downloads from the past 24 hours in any browser window, not just the one in which you originally downloaded a file. The tray also offers in-line options to open the folder a download is in, cancel a download, retry a download should it fail for any reason, and pause/resume downloads.”
Of course it was. Such is the way.
Not first time but Jesus, it's so awful.
An awful lot of text for "We made a new Downloads UI."
I think it’s pretty brave of them to make the bold decision to do what Edge and Firefox literally already do.
I guess they had an epiphany.
- Hey guys, boss needs some new feature so we can write a blog post to put out for the peasants to read.
- Yeah ok, well, just write anything, doesn't matter.
- Ok let's write about downloads, every peasant know about those.
- Sure but spend just a few minutes on it. Make Sidney the AI write it but make sure he is not passively aggressive this time, we care about that, ok?
- Sure boss, sure.
so they copied Mozilla's downloads ui? that's an improvement for chrome imo
I'm gonna call this intentional satire:
It overruns on mobile Safari, too. It’s Ok, I just used the new download feature to download the rest of the sentences.
Did you enjoy your core download journey?
I guess I shouldn't be surprised if the page looks like shit on Firefox Mobile
don't worry, it does (I use mull, which is a fork of Firefox for android)
Pro tip, just don't breath whenever the anger gets worse, you will pass out before you throw up! ;)
Not a shitpost
