When you see someone upset about "Google only features!!!!!!", consult the Blink Launch Process. We're (sadly) far out ahead and tend to implement first because we aren't starving our platform team. Result is we write code early & iterate. So implement !== ship.https://twitter.com/slightlylate/status/1181702221177577472 …

The problem with this methodology is that by forcing something through, you're running a bet that everyone will buy in. Which, honestly, is a valid approach strategy. But you can't be upset when not everyone else adopts those ideas because they didn't have input.

I think this misunderstands both our approach, it's built-in openness, and explicit goal to gather timely feedback early. I wrote about it in the posts linked here:https://mobile.twitter.com/slightlylate/status/1181931256537157633 …

Another alternative would be for Google to get his hands in Gecko and especially WebKit to help them keep up.

How is this not just Google trying to circumvent the standards board to jam through features the way you want (forcing others to follow suit)?

Your question confuses feature development with standardisation. I tried to outline the relationship in these posts: https://infrequently.org/2018/06/effective-standards-work-part-1-the-lay-of-the-land/ … https://infrequently.org/2018/06/effective-standards-work-part-2-threading-the-needle/ …

It seems like it's largely a matter of lost trust, which is unfortunate. I hope trust can be rebuilt over time. It also overlaps with lots of shifts to poorly implemented polyfills on google properties, like how YouTube performance regressed 5-10x because of premature components
