Still too slow on Linux, even with WebRender. On this:
After clicking the expand button in the upper-right area of the test, I get 165FPS on a 165Hz monitor at 2560x1440 resolution on Windows 10. On Linux, even with WebRender, it struggles around 115FPS.

Originally posted by cl333r View PostIt's also a broader Linux desktop issue, to this day I don't know how to tell KDE5/Plasma to not pop an app window in front of me if since clicking on its launcher I clicked on something else thereafter. LibreOffice and other slow starter apps will keep stealing your current app's focus making you stop using the desktop until it fully loads. The focus options in Plasma 5 don't help because they fix this issue but introduce other focus related issues. One of the few areas where Window$ is better to me.
And Alt-Tab in Plasma switches between windows in a strange way sometimes selecting other windows for unknown reasons. Again never had this on Window$.

Some things which it could have support for though:- The <dialog> element.
- The 'system-ui' CSS font-family.
- Debugging of WebSockets in developer tools.
- Debugging of Server-Sent Events (SSE) in developer tools.
- Inserting emoji on Linux.
- Input element support for the types datetime-local, week and month.
- A erase button on input type="search" fields.
- A reveal password button on input type="password" fields.
Firefox feels very fast to me and I think it performs great, but when looking at benchmarks it is impressive how much faster Chrome is.• Proper touchpad two-finger scrolling/swiping support. It feels like scrolling with a mouse wheel at this moment.
• max-content and min-content support without Moz extensions https://caniuse.com/#search=max-content.
• When opening a _blank link or opening a link on a new window, please, come on, tell me where I am going. In Chromium when doing this the address bar is filled with the link contents, but in Firefox, it's empty, or sometimes even "about:blank". What the heck? What if I am going to a malicious website? Does this mean I have to wait until I get attacked to run away? With Chromium I can run away even before the page has loaded, but here, no. You have to wait.
I use Chromium and after removing the Google stuff it's great! Although I do have a single complaint:• When opening Chromium, it pops up in front of my face, which means if I am typing something it would interrupt me, maybe even accidentally typing it on Chromium, which can make me feel embarrassed.

Semantics? In JS. Pff. As if binary + has any sane semantics now. I'd argue that throwing is a better option.
I'd love to see a more strict mode for the language that tries to fix it, and is incompatible with old language. This would allow to easily fix these mistakes.

The developer tools have received a well needed update. That's good
