Goodbye, EdgeHTML

From a social, civic and individual empowerment perspective ceding control of fundamental online infrastructure to a single company is terrible. This is why Mozilla exists.

Microsoft adopts Chromium, and Mozila’s not impressed. We need competition.

I enjoy the cricket matches in Australia. They start broadcasting very early in India, and end conveniently for me to begin my workday. Especially if it is a test-match series against India.

No company launches as many chat services as Google shutdowns every few years. Hangouts first, Allo now. They just can’t their strategy for messaging right. And they seem to be driven too much by engineers to say no to a new one being launched.

Aha, the microcast Third-Person Voice is approved by Apple and is available on iTunes now. Do subscribe, of course, only if you want to join me as I struggle with, but attempt to get better at narrating the short stories I write. Hope this goes as planned.🤞🏽🙂

I am always split on supporting both a dark and light mode of one’s website, especially for the text-heavy one. I think one should decide what the design for her site is to be - users have reading modes in the browsers where they can select how they want to view the text.

I subconsciously ignore anything listicle these days, so much so that I do not even read the complete title. Same applies to ads. I guess this says something about the state of my mind while on internet - always on the defensive.

I recently (and nervously) published the first episode of a microcast featuring the short stories by me. I’ve no idea if the experiment would play out well. But it’s something that I always wanted to attempt and put out there. It satisfies a long-standing itch of my curious mind.
