@stshank @firt @webkit Fully agree that it may not be very likely. But the spec leaves room for vendors to implement things differently. Like for Async Clipboard, where Safari has an additional browser-inserted “paste” button that users need to explic

@samuelgoto @hober @rmondello @blaine @slightlylate @example @yigsgu @majido I have it set up for _everything_ I care about. The flow for npm is what it looks like in general: https://t.co/gfiVxNaqJN. I use Authy (as a replacement for Google Authenticator

@AndyDavies Very true. I think @philwalton’s setup https://t.co/fbm5fZRsLu is still the state of the art.

@samuelgoto @hober @rmondello @blaine @slightlylate @example @yigsgu @majido Much needed! I also wish (even more than email verification, which you typically need just once) there was an API for getting 2-step verification tokens from Google Authenticator

@stshank @firt Widening. But we had some surprise @webkit landing recently with the Contact Picker API (behind a flag, but still). Some nice things like Async Clipboard and Web Share Level 2 (sharing files) landed, too. Hoping for File System Access.

@lucienimmink We’re thinking of making `<link rel=manifest>` aware of the `media` attribute next. Like that you could specify different manifest files for light and dark mode. Additionally, there’s thinking on having a way to do this directly in the m

Yes, there’re a ton of iPhones in the top 10, but you might not see the number 1 and 2 bestselling phones (and the rest that comes after the top 10) since probably your site’s analytics is blind to them. These users never even might make it post the p
