  > So you're saying telemetry should be handled as a separate process that has nothing to do with the rest of the browser, and treated like a hostile service? [... T]his was a dumb bug and it is completely unreasonable to expect some kind of adversarial design "just in case a freak bug triggers on telemetry network requests".

  I absolutely agree that this a dumb bug having little to nothing to do with telemetry. It is not even the first case-sensitivity HTTP/3 bug I’m personally encountering in the course of completely casual use[1].

  At the same time, you know what? I’m glad you suggested this, because I certainly didn’t think of it. Yes, in an ideal world, telemetry absolutely should be a separate process (or thread, or at least not share an event loop—a separate “hang domain”, a vat[2] if you want). And so should everything off the critical path.

  I’m not saying Firefox is bad for doing it differently. I’m saying it’s silly that Firefox is forced to play OS to such an extent because the actual one isn’t up to its demands.

• Who should consider using BSD over Linux and why?
  1 project | /r/BSD | 29 Jul 2021

  Hmm .... not sure i'd necessarily say that's where i'm coming from. i'd be happy with a mix'n'match OS if most of the individual components were created and maintained with thought and care. (As distinct from e.g. "Over the last couple of weekends I learned Rust, and here's my first full program, an encrypted chat server. Enjoy!") Like, SQLite is not maintained by the OpenBSD project, but i believe it's generally considered to be a high-quality codebase. And i recently started using uacme on my server; i don't feel competent enough in C to comment directly on the quality of the codebase, but this and this indicate to me that the author has a clue (and in fact, i feel confident that they have far more of a clue than i do).
