violentmonkey VS caniuse

I recognize that I may be contributing to your "addons have so much power" argument, but I wanted to draw your attention to ViolentMonkey <https://github.com/violentmonkey/violentmonkey#readme> which is stellar for these site-specific customizations (known as User Scripts, of which Greasemonkey was the most famous)

Since Tampermonkey seems to be misbehaving, consider using Violentmonkey.

ViolentMonkey > tamper

I have no damn idea why Tampermonkey, which as very best I can tell is closed source <https://github.com/Tampermonkey/tampermonkey/blob/master/REA...>, is on the "blessed" Firefox for Android list when Violentmonkey <https://github.com/violentmonkey/violentmonkey#readme> is MIT, although I readily admit doesn't it have a "politically correct" name

Step 1Install violentmonkey (or your favorite user script manager)

(And yes, after that I personally pivoted to Violentmonkey. Overall it's good to have a choice :)

I personally use TamperMonkey to run user-scripts and can vouch for its usefulness. Violentmonkey seems to be a popular alternative.

Tampermonkey devs have implemented it but didn't release it yet and Violentmonkey devs don't want to implement it, so I guess I'm not fixing this issue anytime soon.

Install one of the monkey browser extensions (Tampermonkey, Violentmonkey, or Greasemonkey)

ViolentMonkey--Sometimes you gotta have greasemonkey scripts.

On my M1 MBP, Safari 17.4.1, it straight up doesn't work. Can I Use does say Safari only support WebGPU on TP and behind a flag: https://caniuse.com/?search=webgpu

Perhaps a Safari TP bug? I'd appreciate some browser version info so I can dig deeper.

Do you happen to know where can I check out the cutoff version for each browser? https://caniuse.com/?search=wasm doesn't have it (or other things like WasmGC for that matter)

(https://caniuse.com/) A handy tool for checking the browser compatibility of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript features. Can I Use provides up-to-date support tables for various web technologies across different browsers.

Can I Use (https://caniuse.com/)

> 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!

Seems like browser support is pretty universal, even says so in the article

> All browsers support streaming HTML

And the caniuse is promising: https://caniuse.com/?search=slot

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

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

I'm developing a wasm game, and currently I am targeting WebGL2 in order to run in iOS Safari.

Me (and others, I'm sure) are currently waiting for WebGPU [1] to land in Safari so it will make sense to target it.

WebGPU allows for simplified porting of desktop apps to the web, such as WGSL shaders [2]

WebGPU will be the next big thing, and currently it is enabled on Chrome Windows/macOS, and can be enabled in Firefox Nightly with a config setting.

Hopefully, 2024 will be the year of WebGPU!
