The noose keeps tightening.

Google also has been trying to argue that modifying client side javascript is equivalent to hacking.

Modifying code running on your own fucking machine, in your own fucking browser.

Yes.

At this rate, we will be having a "local files are hard for the average user" debate, here, in another decade.

Which, maybe it will be, at that point.

Windows is already claiming this.

Hahah apple does so since iOS 1

iOS is designed from the ground so that people are trained to think in apps rather than files

This is why it took so long until files appeared and why it is still no file browser like in any other operating system (only local directories for some apps and cloud folders)

The crazy thing is that so many issues matter all at once.

Yes. I guess that's fair though. Most people don't like change.

They just can't admit that they're using ai for the server side scripting, seeing how it doesn't work out.

Well, they can take my plugins and Tampermonkey when they pry it from my cold, dead, hands.

They are fine with this trade
