I mean “didn’t care enough” == pay an entire separate dev team to develop for potentially each OS (at least windows probably) in languages unfamiliar to the web team. Then separately maintain that desktop app in perpetuity while the backend changes and drifts. This all for a vanishingly small subset of the userbase that could have used the website with identical functionality. It’s a similar issue with mobile apps.

I fully see the appeal of electron apps even if it’s not perfectly native feeling. I mean vscode is pretty universally liked n that’s electron. Also, it being a web app is a huge boon for anyone needing a code editor in browser.

Perhaps frameworks like Tauri will supplant electron soon enough for better performance and native feel.

He goes into their tech and how they do JS splitting and stuff. Looks old, but they’re using modern techniques afaik

That’s true, but it devalues other labor which can be similarly/more difficult or skilled. I skimmed this article, but it seems to convey what I mean:

I understand what people mean when they say “skilled labor” and I don’t think it’s intended negatively normally fwiw

“Skilled labor” is such a bullshit concept

Why is React Native garbage?

Exactly what you think!

Trump says he’s the ‘father of IVF’ — and that he just recently learned what it is

Weird the example he gave isn’t imperative, which I think would be “Fix a null pointer dereference in …”

It also has optional ads to pay you in crypto. I view 99% of crypto as a scam btw

Frankly, if something doesn’t work in Firefox, thats like <5% market share. Probably lower for a lot of segments. I am familiar with webdev :) Let’s not pretend most devs are checking caniuse for everything. Some sites leverage bleeding edge stuff that necessarily requires chrome, which is also fine. IRL people don’t optimize for Firefox and that’s usually okay, but sometimes there are quirks. That’s all I’m saying

That’s one way to look at it. If a website works perfectly on chromium, but not firefox, why is this the website’s fault?

I remember trying to style a range input slider a few years ago and it worked everywhere except firefox. I also had problems with the style of the <select> recently (inverted colors, wrong font). Not a big deal, I still drive firefox daily, but there are idiosyncrasies

This is more common than you think. It’s usually not broken entirely, but firefox constantly breaks styling/css stuff on websites I use and build. I’ve had a few sites ask me to switch browsers because firefox doesn’t support x y or z feature too
