The fact that that is possible does not change the role of the web browser in the modern computing experience. If you want to build an entire VM that runs in Electron, be my guest, but that's orthogonal to the issue of how Safari should handle storage by default.
- Silhouette 7y agoThe fact that that is possible does not change the role of the web browser in the modern computing experience. But why shouldn't new possibilities change the modern computing experience or the role of browsers within it? Millions of users are benefitting from new capabilities of modern browsers, even if they don't know the details any more than they know what goes into any other software they use. Why is local storage of data, or the idea of a PWA more generally, special in this respect?
