Being a JS/TS one-trick pony all my career, how does it compare to other languages? I don't really see much difference, except if comparing with some C++ shenanigans.
Not only that, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to get to legitimate data advanced web apps need in order to work properly, or to get legitimate analytics.
Everything is obfuscated. And this is not the situation on iOS and Android.
I am working on multiple products which use webassembly and cameras on mobile devices. It's impossible to reliably know how many workers to spin up, what's the safe memory limit and how much memory the device has, which compile-time optimized bundle to load, which camera to select for ideal focus lengths...
Especially on iOS.
And I often get customer complaints that the product is crashing. Eventually it ends up being a single (iPhone) that needs a restart to stop it from aggressively managing memory in Safari. Fingerprinting a device would solve SO MANY issues. And this is, again, possible on native apps.
Those that depend on creating new accounts to replace blocked ones.
Getting a new phone number isn't expensive, but it's infinitely more expensive than zero. And if a service is willing to block the phone companies that offer the cheapest new numbers, the price rises again.
Yeah, the original quality is either a 320kbps OGG or lossless. Not 160.
While this is _a_ backup, it's a pretty lossy one.
