if ms starts contributing to chromium i might finally be able to use chrome to watch streaming video

so either they'll eliminate the only reason i ever use edge or video will run like poo poo in everything

i remember them saying they were bringing their own JS engine to Node and stuff like that. honestly disappointed there’s one less alternative to V8 and Googles WebKit fork.

in related news the Puppeteer project is making the API work with Firefox so that’s nice.

our webapp doesn't support Chrome or any chromium derivative. also, we only just recently finally did the work necessary to get it to work properly in Edge

why don’t you make the thing portable or run in an interpreted language instead of doing optimisation for laser focused webapp compatibility with microsoft windows internet wedge 5.56 for workgroups

it’s a webapp it can’t be that efficient in the first place

fake edit: is it 15 year old spaghetti code

15 year old spaghetti code that's sold to governments. so we can get away with saying that we're not gonna support anything at all unless someone asks us to

tech debt went neglected for many years, so now the product has a ton of obsolete or outright dead dependencies and relies heavily on technologies that fell out of favor in the web world long ago (and it turns out Edge had a fuckton of bugs in the edge-case poo poo 99% of developers never use)

maybe convince the government to do a clean update, i‘m sure the tender for a minor webapp replacement won’t get feature creeped into being a $5bn 7 year late mess of even worse spaghetti code

new version only works on one specific build of chrome, which refuses to run at all unless you set your computer’s clock to 2018 and do a tls mitm to make it think the update servers don’t report a newer version
