So you are saying that Array.from(querySelectorAll) gets you there? What are you missing then? Genuinely asking, I have no clue what's being alluded to without being clearly mentioned in this thread.

I don't think the question would make much sense. Why did Apple do X and not Y (unrelated to X) is not an interesting question. It would seem close to whataboutism. They were willing to spend money on X. They are not willing to spend m

Not exactly, and kinda but definitely not at the same level. Having to trust that random apps behave is very uncomfortable. If some bug makes an app enter an infinite loop, it's a freeze and you are good for a reboot. So we went to pre

You weren't cherry picking but the search query you used would lead to issue reports. HP, Dell and Lenovo also sell Linux laptops on which Linux runs well. I sympathize with the more limited availability and budget restrictions, but co

that doesn't hold. The whole ecosystem, not just the OSI, has agreed that SSPL is not open source / free software, including the FSF, Debian, Fedora.
