[–] nashashmi 3y ago ↗ Another Google product bites the dust.Some nostalgia and use are still associated with my favorite Chrome Apps. Caret and Caret-T were beloved apps; I could "install" them on any computer anywhere without admin rights.I feel sucker punched.
[–] bertman 3y ago ↗ 1. This is not news: https://blog.chromium.org/2021/10/extending-chrome-app-suppo...2. You removed "Old versions" from the headline for clickbait. [–] nashashmi 3y ago ↗ 1. That link does not state the end of date for Chrome apps on desktop computers.2. Added it back now.
