> Developers can build apps on this new internet by downloading the Blockstack Mac or Linux app (Windows coming soon) and by using nothing more than your existing Chrome or Safari browsers.
Why Chrome and not Firefox? In their context, the later makes way more sense.
I welcome the ideas of Blockstack but the implementation with Chrome and Safari is obviously a big mistake. I will not even try it since the ideas of Blockstack on one hand and Google and Apple on the other hand are not compatible.
Larry from Blockstack here.
It works on whichever browser is your default browser and soon all of your browsers. Nothing is Chrome (or Safari!) specific! If you have a problem using Blockstack with your favorite browser, we'd love to know about it so that we can fix it! Sorry about the confusion!
