@ajsadauskas @JessTheUnstill @tomiahonen @fuchsiii obviously, that would've been a good standard for everyone, given that almost all non-#Gaming #Apps these days are #WebApps and at that point we'd not have 100+ MB #bloatware that essentially just loads a #Website and can't even cache shit!
- /me stares angrily at #Cordova
Personally I believe the @europarl_en & @EUCommission could do that and establish as well as enforce an #EC #norm, just as they did with #USBc, #CCS2 and #GDPR!
- It's just lack of political #pressure and #will to actually deal with the #AntiCompetitive-ness of #GAFAMs and given #Microsoft got forced into the #BrowserChoice setup in #WindowsXP & #Windows7, I demand the same for #iOS, #macOS and #Windows11 to include not only #Firefox & #Chrome but also #TorBrowser!
#Android needs to be better as in being more than just the "lesser evil" compared to iOS!
Modern #TechStack|s are convenient but they also make #developers lazy and result in the #enfattening of #Software and #Games.
- Like we had entire Music Videos on the spare space of a #NeoGeoCD which meant this needed to be streamed, and mind you this is redbook CD Audio, not fancy ATRAC3 or Opus...
Nowadays we have shitty #WebApps that eat up 100+MB just for a #WebView and which are instantly useless once they don't have a high-speed, low latency internet connection!
- People like #GraceHopper and #MargaretHamilton propably wouldn't even be mad, but just disappointed, knowing how a modern #IDE eats more computing power than the entire human race had at their career peaks...
And don't even get me started on all the #WastefulComputing aka. "#AI" #bs and #Shitcoin - #Scams!

Hard to believe they were able to get this done with a 135 kbit/s CD-ROM drive and 2 MB of cache!

How to Protect Your Web Applications From XSS, by @torgo (@w3c):

W3CHow to protect your Web applications from XSSThe W3C SWAG (Security Web Application Guidelines) Community Group, launched in June 2024, aims to simplify security features in web app development. SWAG's mission is to enhance web app security by creating best practices for developers and fostering collaboration. A key output includes videos on configuring CSP and Trusted Types, which mitigate XSS. Based on Google’s adoption experience, these resources offer tools to help developers securely configure these protections with minimal effort.
‘The UK's Mobile Browsers and Cloud Gaming Market Investigation Reference (MIR) has published its final report. The conclusion is clear: #Apple’s “#WebKit restriction”, which forces all browsers on #iOS to use Apple’s engine, harms competition, stifles innovation and functionality, particularly for #WebApps.’ #CMA #DMU #DMCCA

Mozilla is paving the way for bringing support for Progressive Web Apps back to Firefox. They'll still look and function like browser tabs rather than standalone apps, but they'll show up more like apps in the OS as "taskbar tabs." #Mozilla #Firefox #TaskbarTabs #ProgressiveWebApps #WebApps #WebBrowsers https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/03/firefox-nightly-supports-web-apps-taskbar-tabs

This clever web app visualizes one's entire life as divided into weeks. There are customizations you can do to depict where you were during periods of your life, mark important dates, and so on. Really fun concept.

@mook OFC I do differenciate between "#WebApps" and #Websites to the point that #AnimateJS et. al. are the de-facto successor to #Flash as #Adobe literally supported it for that reason.
- Then again, I think these techniques should be delegated to their specific use-cases (noone expects browser game slites like #Miniclip to be #accessible!) instead.
For a lot of of cases, #JavaScript is mostly unnecessary fluff.
I find it espechally insulting when stuff like #Mastodon prevents people from even looking up a profile or post at all cuz that's static content at the time of loading it and there's no legitimate reason to just offer a "lite" UI that just displays an otherwise hidden by #CSS & #JS banner that says sth. like: "this is just a lite preview. Certain functionality will not work, like commenting, boosting or liking. Please use a 3rd party client or activate JavaScript and reload the page if you want to use that."
- But I guess that's something Developers at Mastodon are unwilling to accept cuz they have a nonchalant attitude of thinking they are perfect #TechBros!
If you use Native Apps because #WebApps don't have a "nice user experience" you're a precious little baby.
> For 7 years, #Google has failed to keep its commitment to share the ability to install #WebApps with third-party #browsers on #Android, despite public requests from #Samsung, #Microsoft, #Brave & #Kiwi #browser.

Apple's Sweet Solution for Revenue: Web Apps
Apple has released two web apps within the last month, Maps and Podcasts. I have been thinking about how these of two web apps can fit into Apple's overall revenue strategy.

> #React #Compiler is the result of a problem: the introduction of #hooks has led to far too much logic in #components.
It's clear to me that #Knockout had it right back in 2012; #MVVM is the correct pattern for #WebApps

Large Language Models (LLMs) are being distributed across many devices and platforms. Having these models available on-device can help reduce the need for sending private data to cloud-hosted systems.
At the @w3c member meeting last month in #Hiroshima 
, Chunhui Mo (Huawei) explored what it would take to expose these LLMs to #WebApps through a Web #API and the advantages it could bring in terms of #privacy, #security and #performance.

Does anyone use the "g" + letter combination keyboard shortcuts? I'm wondering where its origin are from. Also made a quick comparison table of them for Pinafore, Mastodon, X and Elk (Phanpy doesn't support them).

Ars Technica · Apple changes course, will keep iPhone EU web apps how they are in iOS 17.4Alternative browsers can pin web apps, but they only run inside Apple's WebKit.
EU might be looking into Apple's hobbling of web apps in Europe (websites pinned to the home screen) because the company doesn't like the idea of third-party browsers (Chrome or Firefox, for example) running them. https://www.macrumors.com/2024/02/26/disabled-web-apps-attract-eu-scrutiny/
