And it doesn't only hide www. but m. as well.

they're too big to fail so they can do retarded things and everyone else has to live with the consequences

Hiding this is optional on Opera

its been full retard since it had malware extensions and users acted like it wasn't a real problem

>t. underage

didn't really care until
>"subdomain.www.domain.com" displays as "subdomain.domain.com".

wtf is this pajeet tier coding

As one guy in the bug thread said, it's google trying to kill URLs so normies juat usw google for everything. It's already happening. Most of my friends do the following:
>click URL bar
>type "youtube"
>ENTER
>click first result
instead of:
>type "youtube.com"
>ENTER
which is much faster.

>provide technical support
>"Sir, please enter this to your address bar"
>enters it instead to Google search
>"Which link should I click?"
every fucking time

I literally never type in a URL and go directly to it because I'm paranoid of typing something wrong and being redirected to some malware site.
Its happened to me before.

^This one is actually pretty annoying. There's so much stuff visually broken in the browser if you use a classic or basic theme. Link hovers, notifications, the top of the titlebar displaying garbage, some other shit.

That browser becomes more and more retarded. Hiding www can be fucking retarded if www and non www are different servers. Ahahahaha these fucking retards.

>not having a custom youtube search engine shortened as "yt" and using it as ctrl+L(or alt+D) , yt, tab,
pleb

The most retarded thing about this: It hides either of them not just at the beginning, but also as a label in the middle of a domain.
"example.www.example.com" gets displayed as "example.example.com".

What other browsers provide custom search keywords? It is basically the reason I use Chrome

All of them?
Opera had this for ages (opera 9 had it)

dear lord, hopefully another crazy middle aged iranian woman kills everyone at google for good next time.

>"I don’t know what this will look like, because it’s an active discussion in the team right now," says Parisa Tabriz, director of engineering at Chrome. "But I do know that whatever we propose is going to be controversial. That’s one of the challenges with a really old and open and sprawling platform. Change will be controversial whatever form it takes. But it’s important we do something, because everyone is unsatisfied by URLs. They kind of suck."

I'm not unsatisfied by URLs. I think they work just fine.

The fact that Chrome now hides both http:// and https:// now is why I don't use Chrome for any browsing where I specifically want a secure connection.
I like URIs, they're powerful tools.

Google has truly become the absolute worst. It's exactly as said.

>"subdomain.www.domain.com" displays as "subdomain.domain.com".

Holy fuck

Because only full retards use chrome

>He doesn't know Ctrl enter

>Here's another example where it goes very wrong. The site "www.m.www.m.example.com" should not show up as "example.com".

This just opens people up to a new vector of attack

>scared of "malware" by visiting a website
>lives in early 2000s with vb script

Nobody's perfect, alright? It's testers' fault they didn't catch that.

The user doesn't see any ads, the only thing Google gets is the knowledge that the Gmail user X typed in "pornsite"

Quote from Google engineering manager Adrienne Porter Felt:
>People have a really hard time understanding URLs. They’re hard to read, it’s hard to know which part of them is supposed to be trusted, and in general I don’t think URLs are working as a good way to convey site identity.
>So we want to move toward a place where web identity is understandable by everyone they know who they’re talking to when they’re using a website and they can reason about whether they can trust them.
>But this will mean big changes in how and when Chrome displays URLs. We want to challenge how URLs should be displayed and question it as we’re figuring out the right way to convey identity.

Fucking RIP Chrome.

lol chrome is done. any way to convert a reletively simple chrome extension to firefox? thats the only thing keeping me using it

Not one, but (atleast) two diversity hires deciding about this! No wonder they completely pajeet'd it up with a first year CS student regular expression. Just the other day I was wondering why their layouts are constantly getting worse. Lo and behold, pic related is one of the first photos you can find when searching for "Google UX team".

Google is too big for it's own good. They can do too much dumb shit without putting a dent into their complete market dominance and it is slowly turning the company into a bloated mess. I wish Mozilla wasn't such a poorly lead piece of shit so this wouldn't be the status quo.

>arbitrarily concealing parts of the address bar
>“““better””” UX
Why don't you remove the whole address bar, tab titles and any options to put them back as well? They sound confusing, too.

This is the real reason:

>They are going to hide amp subdomain, so you don't know if you're looking at AMP or the actual destination. And then suddenly the whole world funnels through AMP.

it looks like maybe 2-3 people there actually work hard. others are just enjoying the free ride they're getting just because of their race/color. disappointing future ahead desu

I never got how people could use a web browser that is based on Webkit (Safari, Chrom*, Vivaldi, Brave, Qutebrowser)

Webkit was literally made to allow easy fingerprinting and tracking.

I thought we fucking learned after ILOVEYOU. Don't hide extensions to shit just because it looks pretty. Did I time warp into the 90's or some shit?

is it autistic that i noticed this asap before i even realized that the ui changed?

I started using Firefox back in the day because of it. I don't recall which version but it might have been as old as 1.x

Its a good browser

Why would you type in URLs all the time? Just make a bookmark.

With the average person's typing skill, that's just asking for trouble.

Why would you even need to interact with URLs?

Instead of someone sending you a raw URL and you retyping it, you can just click on it to open in browser.

Instead of seeing a URL on paper and retyping it, just scan the QR code.

In 1985 we got DNS. Now, in the glorious age of 2018, google is replacing DNS with a fucking search engine.
It makes perfect sense though- If people just go straight to the URL, google doesn't intercept the desire and log it in their advertising algorithms. (Except they do if you're using chrome since they log your browsing history anyway)

Oh man this is a fucking phishing wet dream.

Remember when google deleted a library of 93 million geotagged photos to replace it with a much much smaller library of shitty pictures of businesses from "Local guides?"

I find it amazing that modern browsers even show you a URL bar at all, and that google hasn't tried killing it sooner. Safari already does this by showing you only the domain name no matter what page you're looking at.

It's probably the last and only vestigial element from the original days of the internet that wasn't completely sanitized and dumbed down for mass consumption.
