i'd like to see this (filter / exclude) the dotBrand or brand-specific TLDs, as they are not open to the general public.

like .playstation or .airbnb or .nike

From the various links in the comments, the telescope uses special filters in front of the lenses to capture the faint glow in specific wavelengths emitted by the circumgalactic medium (a new word for me!) aka "gas" around galaxies.

Curious, what does someone gain with MacTCP? I'm not familiar with the space, but a casual glance (not an assessment!) suggests that OpenTransport was standard-ish from system 7.6 onwards.

Does it boil down to compatibility with older hardware?

I've been playing with this for a few hours and had similar questions about scrubbing custom tokens or headers from the submitted data.

One concern I have about the instant-replay feature is the potential performance implications when monitoring multiple tabs or windows. I'm not particularly fond of the idea of all sites in this way and prefer better controls there.

I saw the block list inside the extension, but I think an allow list makes more sense for this use case. That way, .ycombinator.com or .example could work as opt-in for instant replay, and ideally, those domains could be preconfigured at the team level.

Acknowledging Chrome's extension per-site permissions is a valid option, but it's clunky.

+1 vote for a datadog integration, in addition to backend data I would love to see this work well with RUM. For now, I'll settle for jamming a common ID into Jam.Metadata and see how that works out.

I also thought Jam would accept bug reports from end-users and look forward to the development of that feature.

Comments synced to timestamps in the recordings are nice. Have you considered a scribble/annotation like the still screenshots, but for videos? The annotations could be anchored to the comment timestamp, and they would help capture a UX micro-interactions that may not be obvious in a still or video.

I would love to see that, especially if the project builds cleanly on all those platforms.

> June 5, 2002 - Mozilla.org, the organization that coordinates Mozilla open-source development and provides services to assist the Mozilla community, today announced the release of Mozilla 1.0, the first major-version public release of the Mozilla software. A full-fledged browser suite...

IIRC one of Mozilla's v1 killer features was "tabs" in a time when opening links in a new window was the only (mainstream) option for a meandering web junkie.

Trademark games are pretty common in consumer tech. FaceTime and iOS are high profile examples of names ("marks" in parlance) that ended up licensed / transferred.
