Hey Chrome Googlers wtf

Stop asking me to sign in everytime chrome is launched (mobile). Reading simple quora redirect to chrome? SIGN IN MF. Quick G search on something urgent? SIGN IN MF. Revisiting a prev open website that’s still kept in Chrome? SIGN IN MF It’s getting to a point where I’m seriously considering switching browsers. At a time when ChatGPT might just be the future go-to, strongly suggest thinking about fucking user experience. God, which genius PM thought this was a good idea?? Consider this a free user feedback!

I have already got the Firefox browser and almost at the tipping point to uninstall Chrome and completely switch to Firefox.

Sounds like an iPhone problem, you're targeted by Apple to nudge you towards Safari and you're falling for it. Give into the dark side or switch to Android and be happy.

I didn’t think of this, the prompt looks uniquely google. But if this is true, pure evil genius 🤣

They want to track all of your data back to your profile [many folks have multiple users use a pc, and Google allows near instant account switching] so that could all be part of it. To further enrich their data tracking back to you specifically. For your benefit slightly. But mainly for theirs.

Safari, we don’t ask you to sign in anywhere.
