The real problem here is browser ever increasing scope.
I never cared for VR or gaming in browsers.
SPAs are user unfriendly garbage that I seldom see used for anything else than preventing user agency.
- concinds 5y agoI don't think it's dishonest. It's easy to find areas where Chrome is ahead, and I haven't found one area (in security) where Firefox is ahead. https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/firefox-chromium.html https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/firefox-chromium.ht... If you ask most browser exploit researchers, this would probably be pretty much a consensus view. Very few of them that I know use Firefox. > The real problem here is browser ever increasing scope. I never cared for VR or gaming in browsers. SPAs are user unfriendly garbage that I seldom see used for anything else than preventing user agency. I don't care what Mozilla or the Safari team think I should be allowed to do in a web browser, I want to have the option of doing practically anything. I'm glad I can play Cyberpunk 2077 in a browser, because otherwise I wouldn't be able to, period (I don't have Windows). People complain that the web's prominence means every app uses Electron nowadays, but I'm glad I can run anything on Linux or Mac, and the "development costs" argument that kept apps Windows-only no longer applies. The web saved the desktop, it didn't ruin it. I view Google's Chrome web app push in the same vein as Steam's Proton. Decreased reliance on just 2 big, somewhat-dysfunctional vendors (Apple & Microsoft), to not be locked into a declining ecosystem.
