Apple is not defending browser engine choice

So the alternative is even fewer and worse options? Even counting brave/chrome/chromium as a single browser, that's 1 browser on iOS vs like 5 browsers everywhere else. Chrome/Firefox are way more configurable with plugins.

I am in awe with the lengths that apple apologists in this thread have gone in order to avoid making reasonable value judgements.

I'm curious, why does this always happen whenever Apple's browser monopoly is brought up on HN?

What is it about Apple in general that makes swathes of people take it personally whenever any kind of criticism is leveraged against that particular mega corp?

Just to be clear, I'm probably close to the farthest from being an apple apologist. I just sense bad things happening to the open web with the current browser usage distribution.
