standards-positions reviews and mentions

It has been one year since Mozilla started seriously reviewing and planning for vertical tabs
IMO, they keep the promises that actually matter and provide the most important value by at least trying to keep the wellbeing of their users in mind. (ref. https://mozilla.github.io/standards-positions/) But by all means go use some other product with shinier features, if those matter more to you.

SQLite WASM in the Browser Backed by the Origin Private File System
> https://mozilla.github.io/standards-positions/ is positive on it
To hopefully add a bit of clarity: indeed, that page has OPFS flagged as positive under the label "File System." Further down the page is a "File System Access" entry which is flagged negative.
I literally provided just some of the examples. Those are easily verifiable.
Web Transport is shipped by default. What was the input from other browser?
Here's the timeline for HID: https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/459#is...
Constructible Stylesheets: the spec contained a trivially reproducible race condition, the API was badly specified. Google shipped against any objections and refused to bring it back under the flag. Full discussion here: https://github.com/WICG/construct-stylesheets/issues/45. Shipped in Chrome https://github.com/WICG/construct-stylesheets/issues/45#issu... (may be hidden on mobile) despite multiple unresolved issues. Two years later Chrome did add a better API that people originally requested, other issues potentially remain.
> Let's hope FireFox starts to support the File System Access API soon.
File System Access considered harmful, will not be implemented: https://mozilla.github.io/standards-positions/
Note: in true Google fashion Chrome team implemented and released at least three different APIs all having something to do with files.
Status of File System Access? "not a W3C Standard nor is it on the W3C Standards Track." https://wicg.github.io/file-system-access/ Shipped in Chrome, of course.
That's why I wrote this: "in true Google fashion Chrome team implemented and released at least three different APIs all having something to do with files." :)
I didn't want to dig through all of them on mobile when I was responding.
Both Safari and Mozilla are open (and implement/have implemented) to Origin Private File System. Because it gives web sites an access to a file system without a chance of escaping and damaging user data. Can't remember which spec introduced it, and it doesn't really matter at this point.
For the more general part of File System Access Mozilla's and Safari's positions are: nope. https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/154
There was also Storage Foundation API but it was thankfully never shipped (it was like a third way of handling files or something),and also received negative responses: https://chromestatus.com/feature/5670244905385984
Where file handling is concerned, there are at least
- File System Access API, https://wicg.github.io/file-system-access/
- File Handling, https://github.com/WICG/file-handling/blob/master/explainer....
- Origin Private File System, https://github.com/WICG/file-system-access/blob/main/AccessH...
There was also Storage Foundation API to which the reaction was "I don't think it's an acceptable outcome for the web platform to have that many ways to work with files" :) https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/481 This one never saw the light of day.

Chromium Ends JPEG XL Before It Even Lived: ~3x smaller images, progressive, HDR, recompression, lossless, alpha ...
Now, from Mozilla "standards-positions". the conversations that went on are priceless. Of note are the comparisons between the fast pace at which AVIF was implemented, and mozilla getting suddenly getting cold feet when it comes to JPEG-XL - Request for position: JPEG XL https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/522 - Add JPEG XL entry https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/pull/523

Web push notifications on iOS in 2023 - notifications on screen included?
Webkit team could hopefully take a look at Launch Handler (before known as Link capturing): https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/90, as well Mozilla did: https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/567 (no response for over a year).
