@jaffathecake I'm not sure that scare quotes around web standard are a good look. You, more than nearly anyone, know that's not how anything works.

@slightlyoff then how did this work? Did it ship by misrepresenting developers as "strongly positive"?

@slightlyoff@toot.cafe @jaffathecake@mastodon.social Please do let me know if anyone at Google actually called this a "web standard". It's not shipped widely, so it's not a "standard", and we've been trying to stamp out misuse of the term, but people do still make the mistake.
