@aeva@mastodon.social I don't know, I think the main problem here is that browsers try to fulfill the "instantly run software anywhere without install" and the "universal application platform" dreams at the same time, and that results in some complicated privacy issues (like fingerprinting) that would be less of a concern if all the software you ran was trusted to some degree... though then again with how *non-browser* software constantly snitches on people in the background, I'm not sure the fingerprinting issue is even that prominently an issue in the bigger picture
