Title should have been “html-in-canvas demos in gif on X” I naively thought the “demo” was a demo, not a X posting by a twit.

Tried this demo in Safari: https://arrival.space/htmlcanvas Looks very cool, and showed a pretty message indicating there's even more: HTML IN CANVAS NOT SUPPORTED Use Chrome and enable chrome://flags/#canvas-draw-element Use Chrome... idontthinkiwill.jpg and aren't we supposed to reject these technologies that allow Google to Embrace, Extend, Extinguish[1]? Kudos to the artist in spite of this unfortunately esoteric (wish it weren't) concern [1](hope I'm wrong about it being a triple E https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguis... )
