WebLibre looks super promising as a privacy-focused mobile browser verticalized down to the network layer, but I think it should collapse / recurse more concepts – do away with the confusing “regular tab” / “private tab” / “isolated tab” distinction, make domain-level / tab-level isolation the default, and offer smarter defaults / heuristics for container-level settings like cookie isolation and proxy routing. Profile switching also force-quits the app and makes you re-open it. Also needs intent interception asking where amongst your profiles, containers, and tab trees you want an incoming link to spawn.

Found a super niche bug in a leading CSS build tool. Guess I'm pretty deep into modern CSS 😅

New platform trend to watch in the coming years – "open metaverse" browser engines.
If traditional operating systems and web browsers render apps/websites in discrete 2D spaces, metaverse browsers composite "spatial fabrics" into a shared 3D extended reality. Even though you see a shared geometric projection, each spatial fabric service is driven by a sandboxed runtime the same way web browsers sandbox webpages by their URL origin.
RP1's first prototype metaverse engine is Sneeze, and their newly-alpha browser client is called Artemis.

Base UI replaces Radix UI as the default UI component primitive library in shadcn/ui. Well deserved.
