At my work web components were purposed recently for creating a ui component library of which I was skeptical. On the whole I was skeptical of web components viability and future but this post relieves some of that tension.
The other thing I was worried about was that it was planned to after writing this web component lib, to wrap these components in React. Does anyone have any experience or insights into a React wrapped web component lib?

I get frustrated by things like this, these walled gardens of people I know. I wish I could just switch to signal but I've found people would rather just not talk to me than download a new messenger app
I've settled for just talking to the people I can convince on different messengers and now have ~5 messenger apps on my phone.

I also thought the avatars looked creepy. I understand that this could be useful but is it more useful than MDN??? (Personally I don't think so).

I feel like node/Electron are about as safe as chromium and it's npm packages that have lost everyone's confidence.

So I very much agree with the sentiment I started writing a similar comment, but if you scroll down to the very last sentence (it's a bullet point) of the article it says that the author is not a senior engineer.

I feel that so many of these articles on Sweden fail to mention the reason for Sweden's strategy and often say it due to another reason. The reason that the Swedish government has given for the strategy is that they think that people can follow the restrictions long term. It's not to save the economy or to create heard immunity (which I have heard from many people.) I think it's too early to judge Sweden's strategy as presumably the intent is that things will be better down the line.
On a more personal note, I live in Sweden and I am not a Swedish citizen and I can say that things aren't "Business as usual here" and plenty is being done to stop the spread of the COVID 19. I can't say I 100% agree with the policy but I also don't think it's the huge mistake people make it out to be.
I have linked below an explanation for the strategy by one of Sweden's top epidemiologist and the one that's often credited as the architect of Sweden's strategy.

The favicons on the duckduckgo browser are often worse than other browsers in my opinion. For example the BBC website where DDG interestingly enough just uses /favicon.ico and the other browsers use the apple touch icon. (Information I found from just looking at the pages headers)
Don't really understand why they do extra work to get worse results... This feels to me slightly worse than just a privacy concern, it's a misunderstanding of their domain which leads me to the question of what else do they not fully understand.
The good news is that you can have the DDG search engine as a default in other browsers.
(I understand that the DDG browser is probably not their main focus and any lack of knowledge can potentially be just on their mobile browser.)

Makes me look forward to this more https://romejs.dev/ since one of the ideas is that it will have no third party dependencies...
But it is not fully integrated with react, you have to do some work for interaction: https://www.sitepen.com/blog/wrapping-web-components-with-re...
That link is a few years old though I think the principle is the same.
