Firefox surely does not want people using WebMIDI...
Why is this prompt so different from all the others that ask for permission??

WebMIDI does work in FF 108 after you accept to install the extra addon for each site specifically, but damn couldn't it be a bit less scary? 😱

@falktx they also refuse to use webserial, webbluetooth or webusb, which sucks

@arcade to be honest, it is hard to keep up when web standards change faster than any reasonably full implementation can keep track of.
and specially for things that directly talk with OS/system services, there is some security considerations to take into account first.

heck, Google folks are already preparing a web-specific GL/Vulkan-like graphics API, separately from WebGL.

no reasonable team can keep up with all of this and still have a safe browsing environment
