Firefox is close to not beeing supported by US government's websites in c/[email protected]

As a web developer, I agree

But ensuring full compatibility with all three major engines (those being gecko, blink and webkit) is unnecessarily hard, as they have their own subset of features

For example: Webkit does not support extending built-in HTML elements using WebComponent, but Gecko and Blink do support this feature. Or Chrome being the only browser that fully supports the View Transitions API. Or webkit's CSS vendor prefixes

The list goes on and on.

You could fix most of these issues by providing polyfills, but that increases the amount of files that you have to load in order to make a feature work on other browsers.

If only there was some sort of standard... Oh wait, there is one, W3C. Idk what they are doing tho.

Canonical's Snap Store Hit By Malicious Apps in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Yeah, my bad 😅

I've forgotten that Canonical is not like Fedora or Red Hat

...but at least flatpak is the savior in the end.

Flatpak definitely has a potential, I use them daily. Haven't had any issues so far

It's not that they don't work better in conjunction, it's canonical's lack of moderation in the snapcraft store.

This could've avoided day one by adding a manual review process (like what they are temporarily doing right now)

I don't know how flathub handles new package submissions, but I think that they definitely need to have a process similar to what other distros have in place for native packages (heck, even Ubuntu's own repos have a review process)

As a snap package maintainer i find it weird that there weren't any guardrails in place to avoid situations like this, considering that the main snap consumer are Ubuntu users and Ubuntu is from canonical.
