    It’s a shame the web got so complex that it has become unfeasible to make a browser engine anywhere near full compliance for anyone that isn’t a large company.

      And I’ve literally heard people say they view Chromium as a reference implementation of the living standard. 😭

        Chromium is to the modern internet what Internet Explorer was in the mid 2000s. It’s not as stagnant (thankfully), but as far as market share and giving one oversized tech giant arguably too much power over the internet, we’ve basically come full circle.

      There’s no “full compliance”. There’s a set of a hundred or so features and everey major browser supports the most important +/- a few dotzend.
