Who the f needs/uses WebUSB? :D
- nativeit 10mo agoI do, but I also benefit from the fact that Chrome is basically everywhere already, so I use Firefox as my primary browser, and just break out Chrome when I need to flash some devices with ESPHome or something.
- NoGravitas 10mo agoI have used WebUSB exactly once: to use the GrapheneOS webinstaller. I keep a copy of Chromium around and use it about once a year for some kind of nonsense along these lines.
- tucnak 10mo agoWebUSB is amazing for trusted computation on TKey platform, i.e. you don't have to trust the browser to load the correct program as the key is always DICE-derived deterministically. The browser is the best thing since sliced bread for running all kinds of programs without having to actually install any of them. WebUSB is great to that end!
