I don’t envy developers working on cross platform software right now.

Cross platform GUI toolkits suck right now, and web development is broken on everything except Chrome.

My prayers are with you.

Actually, web development got a lot less broken when we didn't have to support Internet Explorer 7 anymore. Now it's Safari on iOS that's making most trouble.

But you're right. Cross platform development isn't fun.

Firefox is also broken. If I don’t have edge or chrome installed, I rarely even try opening Nostr web apps anymore. They don’t work.

Sounds like we need more developers working on cross-platform GUI toolkits.

Maybe. More developers improving the myriad ones out there so they don’t suck, like Qt, GTK, MAUI, etc….

Sadly some of the good ones suck now when they didn’t used to.
