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
@erin same goes for browser-choice. unless you manually do behaviour fingerprinting you have no right to know you're running on version 128.69.420 of obscure firefox fork 69. the site shouldn't behave differently based on browser choice, only based on feature availability.
@memdmp @erin unfortunately you can't really check for individual Web API features while on the backend and the same people who yell about this stuff want to minimize JS as much as usual, which is quite the contradiction ​​
