@CarloMonte what incompatibilities? Far as I know HTML5 and CSS3 were written to be stand alone technologies. All browsers should be compatible with it, so it is more of a question of incentivising people to stay away from JS and cookie use.

Shouldn't be too hard either, as most JS pages, load like ass on mobile phones, which is the predominant webviewer now.

Is loading "like ass" bad?

🐸 HanzBrix · Dec 11 at 18:53:

@stack not bad per se, just sticky and flakey. 😂

I suppose the art of the bidet is not universally adopted!

@stack I don't think installing a bidet in your phone is a good idea!

@hansbrix Oh great! NOW you tell me!

Mozilla removes the 'do not track' setting — Citing that "many websites ignore this feature" Mozilla removed it. Many drivers ignore stop lights! Lets remove them too. At least you could see that I did not want to be tracked... Alrhough that probably made me more interesting. [https link] In all likelihood this makes no difference except it does show that we're going in the wrong direction...
