The security arguments here are somewhat appealing but only as a temporary situation? And the answer there really doesn’t sound like it’s intended to be temporary. Also would’ve been better to appeal for more time to provide parity for one feature.

That’s part of the thing mentioned there: that’d be against the law because it’s a capability only available to safari. That’s why I said they should’ve appealed for an exception for that.

the thing that extra sucks is that they have "done an enormous amount of engineering work to add new functionality and capabilities for developers and users"

so like. wow! so obviously a bunch of money went into those features! and they're gonna make life great for developers and users right? sounds like something that might even bring value to existing users, or attract new users that previously didn't want to use your product because of this missing feature?

"in the European Union"

ah, so even when you're legally required in only one market to develop a feature you're not gonna roll that out to other markets? yeah huh. cool. sounds great. obviously.
