Which mess did it cause?
- amelius 6y agoThe mess that requires legitimate services to pierce through firewalls. https://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Firewall-Piercing/x58.html https://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Firewall-Piercing/x58.html
- pantaloony 6y agoIt’s also part of why so many things that’d be better on TCP sockets end up being implemented on top of HTTP... and then actually see adoption in that form. A combo of JS limitations and firewalls aggressively blocking everything that’s not HTTP.
- tenebrisalietum 6y agoThe mess that has made any new protocol look like HTTP for the last 15-20 years.
