I'll take complete video support over WebBluetooth, DRM, WebGL and other similar garbage.
Why is webgl garbage? You don't think 3d online games should be able to exist?
I never used one tbh. Last time I used something WebGL was when its tech demo was released.
Of course all of these have uses, that's why they exist. I just find these use cases very rare/exotic compared to viewing a video with subs.
A lot of people play online games. They aren't exactly rare.
Something that is actually a lot less used (and probably a lot of effort to maintain as well) is webxr. It's a cool technology but not very useful right now (although I could imagine it becoming more important in the future)
can we add webusb and direct filesystem access to the list?
There's direct FS access now? Wow, going full ActiveX
yeah, in chrome. It's put behind a permission.. but that's just a single click or two, and very dangerous, like webusb
