#Firefox joins the other browsers and disables HTTP/2 server push.
  • @lukasa@hachyderm.io in curl's case we only offer it via an API but that also means we cannot very easily take it away without risking hurting a few users... Ie we would need to bump SONAME.

    #Firefox joins the other browsers and disables HTTP/2 server push.

    libcurl still supports it!

    The current JPEG XL decoder in #Firefox apparently consists more than 100,000 lines of multi-threaded C++
  • @freddy you're reading too much into my words. I'm just amazed by how large the existing JPEG XL decoder is.

    And I don't think I am alone.

  • @Di4na possibly: I believe Rust is generally a good thing for most things, but I believe the Rust ecosystem with cargo and bazillions of always-updatiing tiny dependencies risk adding friction and at least complicates the equation quite a lot

    For just decoding an image format.

    Not sure what it says about the format, the implementation and the Internet at large.

    I promise, just because #curl and #Firefox often behave similarly, it is almost never because I once worked in the Firefox networking team. 🤠
  • @leeloo@techhub.social they are indeed quite different beasts in the insides. #curl is not C++ spaghetti using a million threads for example. 😁
