Also all the ad blocking extensions would have to continue maintaining forks of their own projects for increasingly obscure manifest V2 Chromium browsers.

yeah but it's GAMER so it's okay

looks like the bigger issue is hvec itself. Also the support is extremely spotty with all the other browsers as well, with it still only having limited support in Chrome as well depending on your hardware.

Or just use av1 instead. I've literally never run into this as an issue before lol.

They're already a fork of Chromium... Also it doesn't matter much since they use the Google extension store, which disabled uBO.

You could probably install and handle a manifest V2 extension by installing the xpi file manually. But as a developer, the users who would actually do this is a small fraction of the previous user base.

So how do you justify your limited manpower to be spent on that increasingly obscure user base? It may as well be removed anyways at that point.

Eh, I'd still take Chromium anything over the dumpster fire that is Safari

What you're talking about is webcompat and is a very complicated issue. Also I've talked to some Mozilla devs who gave me multiple examples of Chromium rendering something wrong, and they'd have to intentionally break Firefox to render it incorrectly too, just so the end user would get a more consistent experience. Of course these issues happen more and more when things are only tested for one browser.

Cool I guess, but why? What's the use case? Are they trying to bridge the gap between ChromeOS and Android? I know they're inspired a lot by DeX, which is awesome, but as far as I know that mode is mostly for like desktop-like browsing. Not really for development, which is what you'd use a Linux VM terminal for.

Well it's "allegedly" decentralized, which should solve this by design...

Wow that art is really beautiful! Love the color and art style.

I thought they said they were done with their Subnautica series for now? Either way, hell ya this sounds awesome. Just hope they have respawning materials if it has more focus on multiplayer.

Big W change. EU should try to copy this idea.

I was definitely more excited for this project when they didn't randomly abandon it for over a year and a half unannounced. Also spell check is still non-functional. That feature seems like a requirement, otherwise it'd be an amazing keyboard. In fact, I'd say it would be the best.
