Oh yeah, Firefox used to take years to change major version number, then they changed to… what was it now, a 6 week schedule? To keep up with Chrome’s versions.
Something something “1%” isn’t better, it’s just an infantile bragging rights distinction with an abhorrently “premium” price-tag. Fucking “1%ers” think they’re better simply for being able to pay more for the same shit on the spoon.
It is worth noting that the same metric is the exact reason that web browser version numbers are so ridiculous.

That’s what’s happening here. In one of the stupidest ways possible.

I hate their versioning schedule so damned much
It’s gone to a 4 week cadence, now down to a 2-week cadence.
Here’s an episode of the excellent “99 percent Invisible” design podcast that interviews a philosopher who ho has written about this topic! https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/673-the-score/

Can’t say I blame you; it’s 1% better.
