just woke up and i've already seen a "releasing games on linux is too hard" take, a "why bother making my website work in firefox" take, and a story about someone filing a CVE that was hallucinated by an LLM.

i'm not really enjoying computers lately

@eevee i mean releasing native linux releases of games does suck but idk what black magic you have to do for your site not to work on firefox at all

@halva @eevee Well, you decide that Firefox isn't supported, then you add a conditional redirect to a page helpfully informing your users of this fact.

Usually the site works completely fine in Firefox, if you manage to bypass the Firefox detection. Rarely, the CSS is dodgy and the JavaScript auto-fade doesn't work, but this can usually be fixed by simply deleting elements from the DOM.

@halva @eevee i mean, its 2023, making a linux native game is generally just "make sure you treat filenames case sensitive" and not directly calling the windows api or os interrupts (no reason to do that with better documented/more well behaved options), then cross compile.
