    The open source community works in mysterious ways. This bug reminds me about the audio via HDMI bug for old radeon video cards. A simple flag in kernel configuration could have fixed it, yet the bug has been present in kernels from something like 4.1 to 6.0. It only recently has been fixed, after years of having to patch your kernel for a very simple bug.

      The secret is fixing it yourself and submitting a pull request for approval/further additions.

      Unless its GNOME in which case the maintainers will tell you to screw off and you will promptly switch to a better alternative.

        I’m trying, I don’t know much about JS or the Firefox codebase, but I’ve been reading for hours and I’m getting a grasp of how it currently works.

        Now I’m tryna see how chromium does it to either replicate, or inspire.
