What the fuck is wrong with #GoogleChrome / #Blink developers and their obsession with making the #web worse for *everybody*?
https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11523
We need to break #Google's dominance on the #web yesterday, and make it painful for them.
@TechCrunch The only one promising in that list is #Ladybird https://ladybird.org New browser. New engine.
I truly hope they can break help break the monopoly of #Chromium / #Chrome browser and the #Blink engine.
Blink and you'll miss it! 4096 colours and flashing text on the console! https://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20250705081315 #openbsd #console #blink #4kcolours

That blink of the eye is enough time to…

I certainly did not know either. But i searched for it – on DuckDuckGo
The core browser functionality of the #DuckDuckGo browser is the WebView component provided by the operating system. This means that the browser engine is #Blink on Android and Windows [my last option], and WebKit on iOS and macOS [not an option in my poll].
Sorry for the complication.

Une vidéo de @gweeeen avec des explications simples, sans fioritures, c'est clair, net.
Et avec une petite touche de........ heu, comment dire ça qui m'a fait sourire, même rire
C'est frais, c'est direct... J'adore tout simplement.

Oh, no! Ich wundere mich gerade, warum alles so schrecklich aussieht unter X11 und habe jetzt .Xresources entdeckt. Das lag da seit der Erfindung von Computern in meinem Home-Verzeichnis rum.
Weiß überhaupt noch jemand, was #Netscape ist? Und der #BLINK-Tag in #HTML?
Das braucht man ja heute nicht mehr, da macht man einfach 7.000 blinkende Gifs auf die Seite.
#GNOME Web is truly independent from #Google. Though still dependent on #Apple, they don't have as much power as Google. It is still better than a Google monopoly. And #webkit is developed with proper APIs and meant to be embedded in other applications unlike Google's #blink.
One big feature missing is support for audio / video calls (webrtc). With #BoringSSL switching to Apache 2.0, a big blocker for webrtc support is resolved.
We see that we do have options, that we may have many #browsers, but only a few #browserengines.
Wether you're using #Vivaldi, #Opera or #Brave, it's the #Blink engine.
If it's any of the free browsers made for #Gnome or #Plasma, or #Safari for #Mac and #iOS, it's #WebKit.
#zenbrowser, #librewolf and #floorp are based on #firefox (or the gecko engine) and are safe refuge for people defecting from Firefox.
De meeste ouderen en slechtzienden vinden dit ook niet te lezen beste #blink #toegankelijkheid
So, this might seem small, but it's a really cool step forward for #Verso browser (using the next gen, #Rust based, #multithreaded, memory safe @servo engine rather than #Chrome's monopoly #Blink or #Mozilla's #Gecko engines).
They got tabs!
Doesn't *every* browser have tabs? Sure, but others are basically just GUI's slapped on a couple of pre-existing engines. Verso is rebuilding the browser from the ground up using #Servo and #FOSS, even for the #UI.
Early shots fired, #Blink/#Webkit!
