Ask HN: How do you follow news about browsers?

22 points by khebbie 5 years ago · 11 comments · 1 min read


The browser world is moving forward very fast it is hard to keep tap on what is going on. For instance I missed this: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2020/07/referrer-p...

Does some kind of site exists that gathers news about browser updates exist?

If you want to drink from the firehose, the Planets are a good option

Planet Mozilla: https://planet.mozilla.org/

Planet Webkit: https://planet.webkit.org/

On a non-Planet note, you can keep track with Edge via...

https://css-tricks.com/ is one of the best sources I know of for new and/or obscure stuff in the Web world, including browsers, frameworks, etc. Despite the name it isn't just CSS.

Not specific to browsers, but subscribing to RSS feeds of tools I use/depend on has been very useful.

On GitHub, for example, you can append "/releases.atom" to repository URLs and subscribe to that in your email client.

The “Intent to Ship” bot on Twitter[0] tweets the notices from browser makers about their feature changes.

    A shame it does not have a rss feed since this is exactly what I was looking for - but thanks

We attempt to do this (as well as the main specs, independent of browser) with our Frontend Focus publication: https://frontendfoc.us/ – however, you can follow each of the key browsers (especially as there are so few of them now!) directly on Twitter or via blogs as ivank has linked here.
