Apparently that was a touch too glib.
But where was the "bad for everyone" when Google rolled SPDY into Chrome and its own services, and showed not only tangible improvements to HTTP/1.1 but also an actual conviction in its efforts? It took a few years, but there was a good amount of industry momentum behind SPDY even before its ordainment as HTTP/2 became certain.
All Dart ever got was a Chromium fork; how was it ever meant to make inroads without Google putting any wood behind it?
- modeless 12y agoI like SPDY and I don't like Dart VM; I think that reflects the broader consensus as well. Dart VM just isn't better enough to justify switching the entire web to it. SPDY is. Personally I wouldn't support any proposal for a new web VM unless it could achieve no-compromise full-speed execution of transpiled C/C++ code in the web sandbox. That's the #1 most important feature and #2 isn't even close.
