    Yes, it’s a full 24 hours, but a library doesn’t use 24:00:00 to represent the last hour, it’s 23:59:59. Once it hits 24:00, it rolls over to 00:00:00.

    Hence my initial error of answering 23.

    It’s not valid, but I don’t edit out erronous answers because I believe all data should be preserved, no matter how dumb it makes one look.

















  • What we need isn’t browsers. What we need is an universal way to write extensions cross-browser.

    Browsers themselves are easy to make. The problem is convincing extension devs to work with yet another codebase.

    E: Think of it this way. There’s a lot of open source browsers out there.

    Are you using any of them? Probably not.

    Would you use one if it doesn’t have for example Bitwarden, Ublock Origin, Sponsorblock, and such mandatory extensions?

    Users follow extensions and ease of use; not what’s good for them.

    E2: A good project would be a builder extension for VSC for example, which compiles to all supported browsers.

    Browser devs would then contribute to said extension via native-made plugins.

    Cooperation of two fronts.
