The multiplayer, or the lack there of, at the moment is so utterly broken and so lacking of being properly made that for a long time, I was just not bothering with it. Seeing it as something unnecessary. Something that does not need to be touched, because other things, like the...

Should you ever run across an article that says you don't need a VPN because most every website use HTTPS, be aware that you can not see the encryption, or the lack of it, in mobile apps. Thus, things like this happen - Apple did not bother to upgrade their own software from HTTP to HTTPS.

How browsers REALLY load Web pages

When browsers load a Web page and its subresources, A LOT happens under the hood. They need to take into account render/parsing blocking resources, use a preload scanner, listen to resource hints (like preload/preconnect), loading modifiers (async/defer/module), fetchpriority, responsive images, and much more.

HTTP/3 is everywhere but nowhere

HTTP/3 has been in development since at least 2016, while QUIC (the protocol beneath it) was first introduced by Google way back in 2013. Both are now standardized, supported in 95% of users' browsersopens in a new tab, already used in 32% of HTTP requests to Cloudflareopens in a new tab, and support is advertised by 35% of websitesopens in a new tab (through alt-svc or DNS) in the HTTP Archive dataset

Continued thread

I got nostalgic, so I ended up browsing pictures from #DWebCamp2023, and I found these wild shots of me and @timbl. Almost two years have passed, and I still cannot completely believe that I spent time chatting with the creator of the #WorldWideWeb and that he autographed my thesis!

Unbelievable things happen at #DWebCamp.

(Thanks to @mai for the stolen shot 🌻)

Fun fact: @mark kindly came and picked me up at the airport and he drove me and TBL to DWeb Camp. The first thing they asked me about while getting to the car was this patch I had, simulating the hammer and sickle communist symbol, but actually representing a sickle popping open an Aperol Spritz. So there was me, super jet-lagged and hungover (because I had my last exam of my bachelor the day before) trying to explain what that was to the creator of #HTML and the director of the #WaybackMachine. It was super embarrassing but it is a great story to tell.
