"Whatever you think of their decisions, Apple is the only thing stopping a 90%+ Chrome web."

Sorry what ? Can you point me to the place where I can download Safari for Linux and Windows and Android ? If they actually had those builds, I would believe what you say.

But no - All they are doing is protecting their turf by hitting every other browser with sticks so folks prefer native apps over web apps.

I think you misunderstand.

Yes, Safari is only on Apple platforms.

I’m saying Chrome is already dominant on Windows, Linux, Android, and Chromebook.

The only one where it’s not is iOS (Mac is kinda close, but small in terms of users).

If real Chrome can go on iOS my supposition is Chrome will become dominant there too.

Leaving no platform not dominated by Chrome.
