devonwtanderson Did you know that your browser can use Bluetooth, the local file system, the native payments system, and even package your website as an app for use on a phone?
These are web capabilities, the APIs I listed are just a fraction of what’s available.

It’s *incredibly* satisfying to see WebKit bugs handled transparently! I love it when one of the bug comments links to the exact PR on GitHub and not just to a `<rdar://problem/123456789>` blackhole. All the bugs I filed recently lin..toot.cafe/@tomayac/11026…
@kennethrohde @diekus Checked already. The gist is: there was very little usage, and the feedback essentially was that the default “light mode” colors were not too bad, since you can choose them neutral enough so they work in both light mode and dark mode

@verekia Nice. I have updated your Project Fugu 🐡 API Showcase entry accordingly. It should go live with the next deploy.

@gugadev As promised getting back… Turns out this is a Safari bug on macOS. I have filebugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?i…RX.

@sepia_fw That’s very much what Project Fugu is about indeed (developer.chrome.com/capabilities/)! Saying Geolocation was worked on in its context would be quite a stretch, but were the work started today, it would definitely be under Fugu’s umbrella.

@sepia_fw @webkit Thank you! This should go live with the next deployment. Web Speech and Geolocation technically far predate the Project Fugu effort.
@sepia_fw @webkit By the way, feel free to submit Sepia to the Project Fugu 🐡 API Showcase: developer.chrome.com/fugu-showcase/.

@LeoVasanko It’s certainly a personal preference. Glad the team made everyone happy by exposing the setting now!

In the next couple of years, we’ll produce huge amounts of e-waste based on “smart” devices connected to cloud servers that we conveniently—or not so much—control with apps, mostly using proprietary data formats. Examples:

The WWWorst app store (gnu.org/philosophy/www…) is the Web, due to the trap of non-free JavaScript (gnu.org/philosophy/jav…), according to some folks from GNU 🤔. Yeah… That’s a pretty interesting perspective.
