      There seems to be confusion about how, exactly, Apple keeps the web second-class on iOS. Understandable! It's the interplay of several interlocking effects. Let's examine them (thread).https://twitter.com/slightlylate/status/1190665796717957120 …

      iOS is worst-case-scenario for the web, full stop. It's hard to overstate how insidious and widespread its impact has been. https://twitter.com/JoubranJad/status/1190665122831912962 …

      Then there the time, without justification as far as I remember, that they stomped on WebCL with a legal notice. While WebGL 2.0 compute shaders are getting close, there's still no other GPU compute standard for web browsers. https://pcper.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/0abc-apple-webcl-disclosure-jan14-clean.pdf …

      WebGPU is being co-driven by Apple folk, and I'm excited about it.

      Hopefully the W3C will be more careful about accepting anything from Apple. Their lawyers haven't had problems abusing those contributions in the past. But yes hopefully it's all positive.

      Apple plays by the rules at W3C (and elsewhere). I don't see I'll intent there, and certainly not of late.

          It's not ill intent that's the problem. It's lawyers going back to see what stick they can wield in 10 years.

          Again, I don't see much of that game playing of late. Important to avoid anchoring on one bad historical example (e.g. touch events) and credit teams where and when things improve.
