"Troll the Titans" is a ridiculous slogan for a company with $500MM a year in annual revenue.

More like building moats and leveraging monopolies around their particular implementations of the web. They aren't building the web platform, they're making it nearly impossible (or way more expensive) for anyone else to build the web platform.

So much so that the only two other significant investors in building the web platform are Samsung with it's hardware monopoly and Mozilla which is a non-profit.

Because you say so? Or because you can point me to someone else that's done it for cheap?

Opera gave a pretty good run. I think they were about our size, maybe larger but not an order of magnitude larger, when they gave up and climbed on board the Google implementation of the web. And no one else even tries to build a real engine? Why is that? If it was cheap to do...

Do you just not count UC? Servo? Do you think Edge costs $500MM a year to build, maintain and document?

I don't count UC. I've read some more about their implementation (thanks for the push). Samsung seems closer. Servo is no where near a complete implementation of the Web and is paid for in the Mozilla budget so that it can help keep Mozilla's mainstream implementation modern.

Why don't you count UC?
