  I mean fuck Google and all, but this is just an announcement that they are copying Firefox’s way of display download information. Did I miss something?

      I mean is this your first time hearing corporate/marketing speech on the internet? I don’t like it myself either, but it is not like it kills children in africa…

  An awful lot of text for “We made a new Downloads UI.”

    I think it’s pretty brave of them to make the bold decision to do what Edge and Firefox literally already do.

      I guess they had an epiphany.

    It overruns on mobile Safari, too. It’s Ok, I just used the new download feature to download the rest of the sentences.

  The shit marketing people will come up with is so funny. Someone got paid to write all this!

  This is nothing compared to the verbal barf Microsoft managed to put online.

  I imagine most of the filler text got spit out by AI.

    As someone who has geeked out on fonts since we were trading bitmap fonts for System 5 on the Mac, I can say that article is fine. Believe it or not, all of that actually matters to graphic design/text design people.
