Greetings, I'm the author of the noiewarning
plugin , which has not seen updates from a while. The purpose of the plugin was warning users who were using Internet Explorer, back in the '00s and '10s when that was the Current Issue.
Now, however, the real threat to the internet is memes Google Chrome, for a number of reasons from monolithic culture to privacy to open internet incompatibility So, it is past the time already to warn about this browser.
The thing is, I'm wondering what should be the best way to do this. Should I extend the noiewarning plugin to also include Chrome in its warnings, while retaining the current name? Or should I make a new plugin, let's callit nobadbrowser
, that warns about both IE and Chrome with perhaps the configurable option to warn about other browsers? And in the latter case, what should be done about noiewarning? I don't think the plugin manager allows plugins to recommend a migration or supplement instead of an upgrade.
I'm open to commentary on the subject. I hope to tackle the coding and tests on spare time during June.
