Aaand it's falling apart. If only someone had warned in time 🤷♂️
WebAssembly: A promising technology that is quietly being sabotaged.
We have a great opportunity ahead to make of Wasm a great technology that it's stewarded by its community.
Your opinion matters, lets make Wasm shine ❤️

Breaking: Turns out removing the 'web', and with it any form of useful web platform integration, from WebAssembly and replacing it with 'serverless' didn't exactly skyrocket adoption rates. Who could have guessed? But hey, delusion or not, "be the mold." 🤷♂️thenewstack.io/webassembly-a…

"WebAssembly [...] has finally started becoming usable by ordinary developers", immediately pivot to present its unasked-for enshittification as the solution, and conclude that "tech is full of hype that over-promises and under-delivers". Exactly my humor😅forbes.com/sites/justinwarre…

Watching the DOJ antitrust announcement vs Apple right now. Makes me wonder if folks realize that the storyline isn't very different from similar conduct that has been kneecapping WebAssembly, and probably web standards in general, for an eternity by now. To obliterate choice.

Technology Choices Offense, 2024 Edition. Why so anxious? 🤔 Ah, it's one huge deception? WebAssembly isn't actually meant to improve Web tech? It's not even remotely open? Because app stores? So bury in bizarre complexity? Then tax every inch? I see, go ahead.
Yo dawg I heard you disagree with our stuff so we put disagreement into our code of conduct so you can harass while you disagree

Meanwhile, yet another déjà-vu from 2017: "The Importance of Strings to WasmGC", 2023 edition. This time proudly presented by: Google. docs.google.com/presentation…

Makes me realize that by now, pretty much everything we've said, from strings to intrigues, has been proven true. I hope you don't mind the awareness. And that it makes a difference.
Bytecode Alliance now has an official special interest group (SIG) to basically recreate AssemblyScript. Not only that, their initial experiment copies entire files from AS, with licensing headers removed. Impressive.

Newest ploy: WebAssembly WG pushing to loosen the Web engine requirement to *handwave* "reflect the reality of the wasm world as it is today". Reality: Bunch of marketing bullshit circularly labeled reality. Meanwhile: Wasm failing due to bullshit. Solution: All hail bullshit.

Also note how the SpiderMonkey rep is rightly uncomfortable, and bypassed with complete nonsense: "SpiderMonkey [...] a blocker for adopting features", "this is a little like legislation"🤦♂️ github.com/WebAssembly/meeti…
