Large sites silo away from competitors. They don't run their embeds/tech etc because then all your data & all your UI tips will go through their systems. 👀
They would never look at it or use it. Ever. Not their style at all.
Dare to say "dick measuring contest" on this site and you get a warning for supposedly offending someone who doesn't have one? lol. Goes to show the snowflakeness of this site.

// , Ben and Vuild, that's correct. For the amount that they're raking in, they've ended up way less corrupt than I'd expected.

And it chaps my ass that I have to qualify the word "standards" with the word "open." When did the oxymoron of "Proprietary Standards" become a thing technically literate people say?
Take the power back.
