Signal is funded by donations. They got a few pretty big ones a while ago from some wealthy donors, so I don't know whether the donations by normal people by now are enough to cover their costs. I try to donate a bit though, at least enough to cover my costs and those of a few of my friends.
Mozilla is simultaneously a vassal of Google because it's 85% funded by its search revenue, and an over-resourced company that is a monster for trying to bring in even more revenue.
Yeah, it's useful in two ways for me:
- Screenshotting the full page.
- Making it really easy to select specific parts of the page without having to draw and precisely position my cursor.
I think if you try it, you'll soon realise why it's neat.
I think the sidebar makes more sense for that - and of course, that's already supported.
And pop-ups also get covered by other windows as you switch between them.
It was too crowded, so now they just gave the whole lane to cyclists and block through traffic for cars.
Well that was low on information, and the question in the intro ("Does that serve any purpose?") never got answered.
One use case I can think of is a liveblog, e.g. when they're a football match on. Mini Window makes it easy to keep that open to the side, and glance at it every now and then to see if anything worthwhile happened.
Doesn't have Containers, the screenshot tool, Mini Window, extensions on Android - all mentioned in the article.
Here, I cropped the credits off the comic for you:

Appears to be a mistake, but needs gorhill to appeal to make the reviewer aware of the mistake and to be able to fix it, which he doesn't feel like doing because he thinks it's unlikely to have been a mistake.
Update: now reversed, but gorhill removed it himself just to not have to deal with the review process and the possibility of human error anymore.
If TypeScript still is a fad at this point, his definition of fad is far lengthier than mine is.
I'm fairly sure TypeScript will remain in popular use longer than whatever project you're working on 😅

It feels to me like these measure are not up to the host country to negotiate? i.e. the ICC participatory countries would have to decide on this?
In any case, I haven't seen this in Dutch news yet.
