Interesting observations from the comments in this thread so far:
- Nyxt merely integrates WebKit so isn't actually a browser, where a browser consists of an HTML and CSS parsing and rendering engine, plus, optionally, Js; this is disappointing insofar as the enormous HTML and CSS tower-of-Babel specs produced over the last 20+ years still are unproven by a from-scratch implementation
- professional web users other than on Mac OS use Chrome for webapps and FF for actual web sites (presumably b/c privacy features), giving rise to the perspective of separating-out extant web apps into containerized Electron apps in the future (where those aren't already eg MS Teams et al), so by chance we can get rid of the Js ballast and recent CSS atrocities and return to a healthy competitive browser landscape.
- Fnoord 4y agoThere is a PWA extension for Firefox which allows you to easily make a PWA with Firefox under the hood (I always disable telemtry and install uBlock).
