Apple has abandoned the web. WWDC 2016 didn't mention the web once. They are holding web apps back. They still haven't announced service worker commitment for Safari. What a joke.

- sidlls 9y agoThat isn't "holding web apps back" in my opinion, it's refusing to encourage terrible development paradigms and ecosystems. Good for Apple (and I'm saying this as a person who generally doesn't care for the company).
- ElijahLynn 9y agoNot supporting Service Worker is directly holding web apps back. They have a web browser, either get with it or ditch it.
- MBCook 9y agoJust because someone has put feature X in their browser doesn't require all other browsers to implement it. If it did I'd still be able to use VBScript. As I watch HN I see people talk about things that are 'missing' in Safari and they should be able to do from JS and many of them horrify me. I don't want random sites to know the light level of the room I'm in. I don't want them recording audio. Log running background tasks? Didn't we learn from TSRs? I don't trust random devs with that.
