Making a Chromecast Receiver
I had no clue Chrome already used Openscreen Protocol! I thought it was just an in-progress idea & that their casting ecosystem was all something different. https://github.com/w3c/openscreenprotocol
It's lamentable that so far this very cool part of the web has no open interoperable solutions. I'm so delighted to see this hackery & hear it works!! I really really really hope it sticks, until a real answer is provided.

Google Announces Pixel Tablet
There is a great lovely w3c spec to do Chromecast, but as an open protocol. A remote control protocol for the web. https://github.com/w3c/openscreenprotocol
I really hope we can do it. So far it's almost exclusively Google putting the work, to take their tech (derived from Netflix's common sense/simple Dial protocol) & re-protocol-ize it again.
Such amazing benevolence, in my view. But if you want tech to succeed, you need to set it free. If you love it set it free. Create more value than you capture. Again here as in many places, I can say, thank you Google. You empower a great connected medium. It is good. These acts are great.

Firefox lost 50M users since 2019. Why are users switching to Chrome and clones? Is this because when you visit Google and MS properties from FF, they promote their browsers via ads?
Stuck in standards hell, but I'm sure Firefox will support it once it gets standardized: https://github.com/w3c/openscreenprotocol/blob/main/explainer.md

Chromecast too many advertisements
There is some work in progress on Open Screen Protoocol along with a very very early prototype implementation, that aims to create an official W3C standard for implementing the W3C Web Presentation API. Hopefully this work proceeds.

Recover lost text by coredumping Firefox
You can achieve this with native messaging [0] in tridactyl [1]:
https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/850acdf2ca11018e...
It's really cool, I've added an option to open these windows in floating mode automatically in my sway config through another application name iirc. Ans then I press a simple shortcut, and it opens my editor (Helix) with the already entered text and once I close it, it'll transfer the text from that temporary file which was open in your editor to the the input field/textare again.

> I can't even edit the code that is taking focus and hijacking shortcuts!
You can remove the shortcuts pretty easily with a userscript, see lines ~410-440 here for inspiration: https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/2eaba7e4ceec6de5...

Wait until you find out about Tridactyl [0], which, among a plethora of other features, can activate a command line where you can perform all these searches (for example, `:tabopen` will list and activate fuzzy search of all opened tabs).

Mice come in all shapes and sizes, making it difficult to decide which is right for you 🖱️
You might be interested in using a browser plugin like Tridactyl instead, I’ve been using it for months now absolutely no complaints, no need to “simulate” the mouse anymore just use page hints to click exactly the html element you want to https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl

How to mock builtin function?
Nearly everything on reddit uses reddit-flavored markdown. Backticks for inline code, as you discovered, but indent code blocks with four spaces. I use a browser extension so that I can edit all my comments in Vim, so manipulating this markup, especially code blocks, is easy.
