The most irritating thing of all is Firefox Mobile supports PWAs, but after the fall of FirefoxOS many years ago, they refuse to add it to desktop. Firefox Mobile also has this collections thing... which *does not* sync to desktop. Like... huh???

It's always funny to me that for a brief while, even during IE11, Trident was the only actual standards compliant rendering engine that also had features nobody else had.

I literally have hls playback in desktop firefox lmao. idk maybe my vendored version of wasp-hls is doing weird sorcery but it does work.

oh i mean, sure if you add a hls library lol. we use hls.js for bsky. but safari/chrome support just whacking a .m3u8 in a <video> tag with zero dependencies

if you wanna verify: const video = document.createElement('video') console.log(video.canPlayType('application/vnd.apple.mpegurl') !== '' ? 'yep' : 'nope')

How exactly are you using wasp-hls? I looked it up and can't make sense of that from the project's readme.

I have vendored and substantially modified it lol. basically took the rust core and integrated it directly rather than using all the js it had around it

also added a bunch of features, either in the vendored version or around it, like the crazy powerful subtitle stuff.

man I love firefox but every so often there are things about it that just infuriate me. But at least it's not safari.

Whom have I to bribe to get HLS into my beloved Firefox? It can't be rocket science.

this has to go in other peoples’ websites so it needs to be as lightweight as possible. HLSjs is chonky

I know that I should figure out how to file a big report, but there's something wrong in the line-counting or layout in Android Look at this screenshot of taniel's post on pixel 9, latest bluesky. There's a missing line. bsky.app/profile/tani...

With 45% of ballots now counted, the opposition (Tisza) is leading 52% to 39%, and is projected based on current results to win a supermajority of 2/3rds that’d allow them to amend the constitution.

I think they clone the video with that embed, or at least when I looked at it the video loaded from their CDN. It's special-cased on bsky.app URLs too, unfortunately. So forks don't get any of that special embed treatment yet.

Is discord still throttled? embeds often break, leading to xbsky or similar as workarounds. Last I heard they couldn't get through to bsky staff.
