Ah, sorry - I usually use the beta versions, they seem to have had it earlier then.

I wrote my own self-hosted cross-browser Xmarks alternative which happens to work on Vivaldi but is currently only tested on Firefox. Turns out cross-browser WebExtensions are not quite as easy as I thought. Alpha-state code and website: h

The last big features missing from Firefox are tab tiles and the ability to "run" an executable download directly. The WebExtensions API does not allow either of them anymore.

Whoa. Been using Vivaldi (as one of three main browsers) since the first Technical Preview - how come I haven't found that yet? Thank you!

Firefox's "environments" are almost as lovely as Tab Groups though.

Because Emacs could do that before Atom's devs were even born.

I consider it to be broken web design if a website requires JS to display text. I could live with a hard cut.

I played a bit with WASM and I like its approach, but the one thing that annoys me most with web development is the limited number of client-side languages. WASM can be great if they allow it to.

WebAssembly is not worth the effort unless it finally is supported by the LINK tag. Seriously, using JS to load a JS alternative is ridiculous.

IMO, it sucks now. I like the awesome new speed even on my old Sandy Bridge, but the death of ANY possibilities to add features to the browser UI is not worth it. Really.

(Chances are that those are about to be added anyway which would make me look dumb. But last time I checked, the VS team said they wouldn't do that.)

Yes, that's why the assumption that it would be a subset is not quite true.

Particularly, C11 threads. That's about everything for, at least, me. I know, windows.h has something similar, but I'd prefer to have standard features available.

I find syntax highlighting to be quite distracting. There are reasons why it is still an option and not mandatory.

I guess it wouldn't even exist if OllyDbg x64 would be a (non-alpha) thing. x64dbg provides a number of plugins in order to fill missing features to IDA/Olly: https://github.com/x64dbg/x64dbg/wiki/Pl
