As I mentioned in another comment, in short, WebCodecs and File System Access API I believe. Both pretty essential for an app designed for editing large video files from disk.

> If only it was possible to prove nothing goes back to the server That's an interesting question, but I think it's also equally difficult to prove for non-browser software.

I did mention that, but it doesn't mean it was first published then. It could have been first published years ago, and then recently edited to fix a typo.

This is a bit of a tangent but it always annoys me when content has no published date next to it. There's a tiny "last updated" date at the bottom. But how do we know if this is a new article or one from a few years back? Wit

As I understand it: Spectre/Meltdown allow reading from the address space of the same process only. If browsers put different origins in the same process - which they used to - then JS code can break the same-origin security barrier an

I suspect the only reason Apple rebranded iOS on iPad as iPadOS a few years ago was just to be able to claim it's a separate OS for regulatory reasons, despite it obviously being the same iOS as run on iPhones but on a different form f

I think this is more an illustration of how Apple are intentionally trying to hobble web apps so they can continue to tax all transactions on the app store, than any kind of issue with web technology itself. If Apple implemented the necessa

Does the DMA actually require that other browsers support 'Add to home screen'?

Nope, it could still be a bug - they typically remain silent even when major bugs are causing disruption. Just one of several ways Apple make developing for Safari a nightmare.

I think it's worse than that: Apple managed to wrangle it so the new rules apply specifically to iPhone, and not iPad [1]. So the new rules apply only to iPhone devices in the EU. So then there's the absurd situation that, say, a

I don't think it's true that developers do nothing for Apple. If there were no third party apps for iPhone, Apple would sell many fewer phones. I suppose many could theoretically move to the web, but then the point still stands th

I think you've misunderstood the point of the post. Of course bugs happen and things go wrong, including on our side. What makes it so much worse is Apple's opaqueness: no communication on bugs, no release schedule, no public plan

I used to think it was better to have Safari for browser engine diversity. However Apple develop Safari with such appalling negligence that it's changed my mind [1]. Having a single browser engine dominate is not a perfect situation an

Maybe they rushed it out originally, but it's been out for two years now, and I think it's reasonable to expect any rough edges to have been smoothed out over that time!

I've been regularly using Windows 11 for most of the time it's been out, which is about two years now. The main problem I have with it is even after two years it still feels beta quality. The number of major regressions in the mai

(Author here) Construct is completely independent of GameMaker. Key differences are it's fully browser based and built entirely on web technology, has more focus on the block-based alternative to coding, but also support for industry-s
