Server-Sent Events: the alternative to WebSockets you should be using
My personal WebSockets vs SSE TL;DR goes something like this:
* If you're on HTTP/2, start with SSE
* If you need to send binary data, use WebSockets
* If you need fast bidi streaming, use WebSockets
* If you need backpressure and multiplexing for WebSockets, use RSocket or omnistreams[1] (one of my projects).

The WebSocket Handbook
I built omnistreams[0] primarily because of the lack of backpressure in browser WebSockets (lots of background information in that README). It's what fibridge[1] is built on. We've been using it in production for over 2 years, but I never ended up trying to push omnistreams as a thing. I believe the Rust implementation is actually behind the spec a bit, and the spec itself probably needs some work.
At the end of the day I think RSocket is probably the way to go for most people, though the simplicity of omnistreams is still appealing to me.

JavaScript is not single-threaded
You forgot to mention (Web)Workers. This is explicit creation, management, and communication with additional threads within JavaScript. What's more, they've been around in JavaScript longer than the V8 engine has even existed!

Speedometer 3.0: A Shared Browser Benchmark for Web Application Responsiveness
> Is it though?
In my experience it's the buggiest browser out of the big three, and is often missing basic features like e.g.:
https://caniuse.com/?search=opus
Supported in Firefox for *12 years* now, in Chrome for 10, still no support in Safari.
They only "support" Opus audio in their special snowflake '.caf' container, which is super buggy and the last time I checked no open source program could even generate Opus '.caf' files that could be played by Safari on all Apple platforms. I ended up writing a custom converter which takes a standard '.opus' file and remuxes it on-the-fly (I only store '.opus' files on my server) into Safari-compatible '.caf' files, taking special care to massage it so that it avoids all of their demuxer/decoder bugs. You shouldn't have to do this to have cross-browser high quality audio!

Streaming HTML out of order without JavaScript
Well I'll be! In my mind I had this clear picture of Firefox implementing it.
It correct, it was only Chrome: https://caniuse.com/?search=html%20import

IPissed: Apple is after web capabilities to protect close to 100B App Store Tax
https://caniuse.com/?search=web%20bluetooth
which might be great because you have the choice...
and you can use open source chromium or brave (like the jvm to run cross platform java) to run web apps seemlessly that need web bluetooth or such but use safari or firefox for personal use if you find them more secure
I mean using chromium engine as the running environment where chromium only ever runs special trusted web domains and never goes to other "malicious" web domains that may fuck up iOS as Apple claims would be still a secure choice
like you will not download spyware from Apple Store because you are an adult not because Apple can protect you there
