Hmm, guys, can we just fucking go back to HTML 4?

Usecase for opening PDFs in a web browser?

It's like this on purpose, you keep newcomers out of an established industry by helping to write the burdensome "regulatory" laws, that large corporations can deal with by having entire teams of lawyers dedicated to compliance but small businesses literally cannot afford to keep up.
Same with the HTML standard, you have to implement the whole fucking thing and all it's stupid quirks or your alternative web browser is literally broken.

>>109091000
Usecase for having a dedicated software to showing you text with maybe some pics from someone else's computer? That's literally what the browser is for, it's just cross compatible with HTML and PDF.

You could also build a browser only supporting select features but that would require someone actually wanting to build a good browser and not just want to become the next Google so you can fuck with the standards to keep competition out.
