Mac has lots and lots of inconsistencies too. Some apps, like Music.app, is also pretty much an Apple version of electron. The inconsistencies aren't better on Mac, just different ones.

That is not true. If you read what experts who actually do something to stop CP (unlike Apple) say there are proven false positives. https://www.hackerfactor.com/blog/index.php?/archives/929-On...

HN is mostly like a good day on Facebook but once in awhile it transcends every other social media. IMO it is going downhill fast though and the really good discussions are getting drowned out by China hate, nationalism, brand loyalty, etc.

Doesn't that only convert to pdf? Most modern features are interactive features, like Ajax and add-on APIs. I doubt we'll ever see an interactive facebook.com in pdf, though I'm sure Adobe would love to make it happen.
