I mean fuck Google and all, but this is just an announcement that they are copying Firefox's way of display download information. Is there something inherently wrong with that?

Are you sure this wasn’t written by some poor intern under some form of duress?
“With the download tray, you can see a list of all your downloads from the past 24 hours in any browser window, not just the one in which you originally downloaded a file. The tray also offers in-line options to open the folder a download is in, cancel a download, retry a download should it fail for any reason, and pause/resume downloads.”

An awful lot of text for "We made a new Downloads UI."

I think it’s pretty brave of them to make the bold decision to do what Edge and Firefox literally already do.

It overruns on mobile Safari, too. It’s Ok, I just used the new download feature to download the rest of the sentences.

Did you enjoy your core download journey?

I guess I shouldn't be surprised if the page looks like shit on Firefox Mobile

As someone who has geeked out on fonts since we were trading bitmap fonts for System 5 on the Mac, I can say that article is fine. Believe it or not, all of that actually matters to graphic design/text design people.
