For the tech illiterate recommend Safari. For tech people, appeal to their privileged position and the importance of defending the web by choosing any other browser (or Safari).

Both users can keep Chrome installed as a fallback - that will help with convincing too.

And drop my Ublock origin, bypass paywall clean, etc? Hell no.

That's only applicable to Apple users, though.

Tech illiterate people should be using MacOS anyway. Windows just gets worse every year. MacOS is actually more like classic Windows than Windows 11 is so it's actually easier to use for tech illiterate people.

Didn't Apple implement this same type of thing in Safari a year or so ago?
