#blink

#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.

Continued thread
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.
meanwhile Canada HAS to do what it said it was going to do

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!

I would beg you to reconsider. Not for Mozilla's sake or even Firefox's sake, but for the web's sake.
Having all web traffic come from #Blink-based browsers gives implicit ownership of the web to Google. We're already 76.5% there, but every percentage point from this point on will be increasingly bad.
I'm not saying that the alternatives to Blink are plenteous, or wonderful, because they're absolutely neither.
But to me, supporting a Blink hegemony by using a chromium-based, electron-based, or even qtwebengine-based browser is a total non-starter.
That's the primary reason why I stick with Firefox, despite Mozilla's innumerable gaffes.
Other than Gecko and Servo-based browsers, #Webkit-based browsers such as Gnome Web / Epiphany look decent. There's also #Ladybird which is a hopeful new from-scratch browser project.
rldane.spaceMozilla and the Death of Virtue
In the battle
between the immovable force
and steadfast object
something has to give
Who will #blink first?
Which unrelenting side
will swallow their pride
and finally realize
the ultimate folly
of mindless intransigence?
Being a sensible adult takes courage
Some shots from my show at The Helper Mini in Utah. Electric Horses Forever has three horses running, with a few more out of the gallery. You can blink them if your near the gallery by joining the "Pink Pony Club" wifi network, and it's "captive portal" even works on iphones and androids.
The three of them should make a nice pink glow in the gallery day and night, and light up a little piece of the town of Helper.
The horses have made it out west!
Thanks to @hut23 for letting me present at #TheAlanTuringInstitute on Tuesday on the "Anatomy of a Browser" covering embedding browser frameworks.
A first for me: presented from my #Linux phone using an embedded #WebView streamed using ScreenCast.

New review time (text and video) as I test out Amazon’s cheaper-than-Ring alternative smart home cameras, the Blink Outdoor 4 and Blink Mini 2!

A Brief Embedded Browser Expo.
As part of my continuing exploration of embedded browsers, a hands-on look at three nice examples: Chromium Embedded Framework, Qt WebEngine and Sailfish WebView.
What features do they support? What do their APIs look like? What are they like to use in practice?
And what is an embedded browser anyway?
My latest distraction from the emails I should be sending- a flask server that displays a webcam, has a sqlite database and has GPIO control.
I also have been playing with cloudflare tunnels so I can open this up to anyone who wants to blink it. The idea is to make it so anyone can interact with sculptures and "be" at the gallery without actually being there- so thousands of people could "attend" an art opening.
I wanna one day teach this web blinking neon stuff. Thinking of structuring the class as "WeBlink" and parodying WeWork to market it. I sorta share Adam Neuman's demographic... Except I actually use computers- just not so much for emailing ;)
Planning on bending a "WeBlink" neon that will allow people to vote on "We Blink" or "Web link" styled in your favorite co-working space font.... Just as soon as I ship off a bunch of ponies.... And finish this current wave of bill paying neon work :)
Went to #blink #Cincinnati tonight. Was pretty cool - so many people were out, was fun to be a part of it.
Stoked that #Verso Browser (based on @servo 's #Servo engine ) got their application greenlit by @nlnet !

It's very early days, but we really need work being done on a #FOSS browser with a non #Blink / #Chromium render engine, as a lifeboat for the burning ship that is @mozilla #Firefox.
nlnet.nlNLnet; Verso Views
With all of the screwed up stuff that @mozilla is currently doing to my beloved #Firefox, I hear a lot of chatter about @Vivaldi . And for some good reasons. There's a lot that seems pretty decent.
Please just don't overlook that it's a proprietary UI/apps over the monopoly #Chromium / #Blink engine.
This is not the FOSS replacement for an #OpenSource browser on an alternative render engine.
Yeah, there's no easy answers atm, although I would suggest contributing to #Verso any way you can!
