  • Blaming Js/Ts is ridiculous. All those same problems exist in all environments. Js/Ts is the biggest so it gets the most attention but if you think it's different in any other environment you're fooling yourself.

  • And yet, tons of developers install github apps that ask for full permissions to control all repos and can therefore do to same things to every dev usings those services.

    github should be ashamed this possibility even exists and double ashamed that their permission system and UX is so poorly conceived that it leads apps to ask for all the permissions.

    IMO, github should spend significant effort so that the default is to present the user with a list of repos they want some github integration to have permissions for and then for each repo, the specific permissions needed. They should be designed that minimal permissions is encouraged.

    As it is, the path of least resistance for app devs is "give me root" and for users to say "ok, sure"

  • Can you explain in detail what feature of UBlock Origin I will lose because of V3 vs V2 extensions?

    I see people complaining, I don't see concrete examples, only panic

  • Good! because people prefer Chrome. People have to go out of their way to install it and they do.

    If Safari was better then Safari would stay #1 on iOS. They shouldn't be allowed force this any more than Microsoft was allowed to force IE.

    If 3rd party browsers were allowed we'd have had WebGL2 on iOS 4 years earlier. WebGPU 2 years earlier. WebXR several years earlier (Apple is only adding it now and only for Vision Pro), and many other features.
