erin 💫websites should be banned from knowing the operating system they're running under. no exceptions. the web development industry has collectively lost their privilege to know what os im using. i will continue taking away standard web features until you agree to fire the imbeciles that put "linux isn't supported! you're doing scary things that may not work!" messages on my fucking textbook reader. whatever your terrible pdf.js clone is doing that requires knowledge of my operating system, stop doing it immediately
LMR 🇦🇹🇪🇺🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏴☠️@erin alternatively: make it opt-in with popup, like notifications and camera/mic access. and make it mandatory for browsers to have a spoofing option for them to be standard compliant.
@_r this would be great if it had been like this from the beginning, unfortunately i feel like at this point if it's possible to request then nobody's going to stop requesting it and then we're just going to make the popup desensitization worse for users when every single page continually asks them what os they're on even if it's not needed
@erin no popup. auto-deny and make people find it and enable it themselves if they want it so badly. per-website, yes
@erin yeah no of course not. none of this will ever happen. we will stay at the status quo
