To clarify, my objection isn't merely that I dislike that feature, but that I'm concerned about it becoming a fad that gets foisted on those of us who don't want it and possibly can't use it (due to accessibility issues) but still have to buy stuff, access educational/training content, etc. It would be better, IMO, if the web could get back to having multiple browsers that are serious about acting as user agents for a variety of users. Then, freed of the expectation that the browser must render a pixel-perfect presentation of the UI as it was designed, some browsers could provide a VR interface to the lovely accessible hypertext that sites should be providing as their one and only version, while other browsers provide a TTS-optimized UI, a Braille-optimized UI, a UI optimized for large fonts, etc. Put another way, I think the web community should redouble its efforts to achieve the things that Hixie apparently gave up on. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34622514 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34622514
