And since you won't be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.

The community feedback is... interesting to say the least.

How do Google Employees sleep at night?

Sleep pills and prescription drugs

I'm pretty sure google is more like many small fiefdoms fighting for money and prestige than a unified pack of moustache twirlers. Though there do seem to be a lot of "head up their own ass" engineers there, too, which leads to things like them having 15 different messaging apps and an inability to maintain projects long term.

I have a family member who works there. They like money and not having to work very hard.

Huge bags of money.

Same as bankers hedge funds anyone really in finance and a whole host of jobs.

Think oil barons cry themselves to sleep at night.

Consciouses are for the weak minded. Sleeping pills and alcohol solve that pretty fast

Given the pay, I assume the answer is ‘quite well’. It’s unfortunate, but we’ll do quite a lot if it’s for money.
