Chrome changes from WebKit to Blink

#1
Blink is the new rendering engine for Chrome, created by Google and Opera Software. Do you think Chrome will change drastically with this new engine?

I read somewhere Google removed almost 9 million lines of code from WebKit when developing Blink, so I think it may.

I hope that it's for the better, personally. I kind-of liked Chrome as it was, so hopefully this doesn't affect things in a bad way.

Well, the new version of Opera is Chrome-based so if that's any sign. Tongue

In that case... maybe Opera will become a browser that's actually good Tongue

Removing 9 million lines... I couldn't do that. If I had to overhaul my project that much, I'd just rewrite Tongue. And Opera is fairly nice, but it has a lot of unneeded features.
I mod Paradox games. Click here to see my many adventures in doing that.

Agreed. 9 million lines is a lot of code for sure.
