Yep - the site has a point of view but rooted in real data that you can filter as you'd like. I've had real-world experiences where I develop something that works on my Mac and my Pixel phone but cannot work on iOS WebKit (basical

Hi! Creator here (of iOS404) - you can filter level of standard and compare to FF Android (or compare to Safari Desktop, or any mix) instead if you'd like.

FF Update: Gecko based Firefox isn’t as performant as WebKit/Chromium on desktop/mobile devices when it comes to some canvas operations (even on offscreen!). I was able to greatly improve performance on desktop by limiting how muc

Update: Think I have found a way to speed it up for Firefox (and everyone else too!). On holiday with the fam so might take a couple days before I push a fix. I'm optimistic though!

Downloads are really clunky in SFSVC. You can do them, but it takes like 3 actions compared to iOS Safari. I've gotten lots of complaints on another site I have that does on-the-fly blob (Object URL) downloads that users don't und

You can download as SVG! There is a screenshot JPG, fold + cut template PDF, and simple shape SVG download on the site.

Oh wow both Orion + Arc on iOS have the same UA as Safari and are testing positive for SFSafariViewController (an experimental test). I'll look into other ways to not confuse SFSVC with these browsers. Interestingly - downloads on Arc

I'll take a look, thanks for the heads-up!

I'll take a look. Perhaps my inapp detection is throwing false positives. I also detect for SFSafariViewController because of the bad UX downloading experience there. Maybe it is catching your browser as well.

Hi Diti, are you talking about the inapp link to Safari? If so - it's the only reliable escape link for ios. It should work on other WebKit browsers as well but no reliable inapp escape link is available for the default browser on ios

Thanks @Liftyee! Yeah Firefox seems to lag behind on the site compared to WebKit or Chromium browsers. Hopefully I can optimize it more for Firefox.

Cool, I didn't know that could happen! I started with 12 sections (or 6 lobes/mirrored sections) then wanted to play around with more section numbers without having to redraw. I think 12 is for a more advanced paper snowflake make

Hmmm odd. Works on my machine (of course!). It's a static site hosted on S3 - I'd be surprised if it is experiencing an overload issue. Will need to investigate what's happening for some visitors.

Thanks! Yes, great idea. Definitely will want to make that clearer!

Lol - can't say it didn't cross my mind to use tech that wouldn't work on iOS :)

The text copying is a good point. The text is actual text. I must have disallowed selecting for the swiping feature to work. Definitely something I should look to revert or allow for copying buttons.

I just emailed HN via the contact below. Not sure if that's the right method -- thanks the tips!

Hi all - this is quite fun! I'm Shalanah. I made iOS404.com. A couple of feature notes: - Compare to other browsers by clicking on the Chrome icon to switch to FF for Android or Safari Desktop (or a combo). - Select or deselect specifi

Hi! You can filter out which standards W3C/WHATWG/Other/Non-standard you'd like to focus on the site. The data is driven by caniuse.
