On the side, I'm even more sad because I feel like the open web can't be the alternative answer to locked down systems. It was the promise and the dream of the many of us years ago, but I'm disillusioned by now. And not only because Chrome and Webkit(on mobile) are a monopoly, but the web keeps failing its users with bad ux and less capapabilities than native. Even the most well crafted web app feels slow and clunky. Unpopular opinion: who makes web standards failed us and browsers independently implementing non-standard anti-user feature(e.g. manifest v3). I really dream of a stripped down browser that just expose some os native apis for making accessible human interfaces, we had flash and we hated it imo we need flash again
