I'm testing a new system at Vidown and want to see how universal it is. If you can spare a few seconds, please visit this link and let me know if you can see the very short video.

I voted yes for Windows, but then I realized I should try it on my iPhone 6s. Also worked there too.

Edit: OS: Windows 7 (yes I know my computer is ALSO a potato)
Browser: Chrome up to date

Works on Firefox on Linux Mint 18.3

Works on Mac and iPhone and oddly enough also answers the question I was asking myself the other day about whether anybody still writes Perl lol

Only the cool kids

IMDB, Amazon, The BBC are a few sites using it for most things, but it's installed on every server by default and is used extensively for system tasks. It's slower than PHP, but the speed of a "glue" language that is used to string together C/C++ backend functions isn't all that important.

The best part of it is that, unlike PHP (which breaks EVERYTHING on every update), none of the version updates in the last 20 years has ever broken any of my old code. It's the very definition of backwards-compatible.

I'm guessing that the handful of "NO on Windows" are people still using Internet Explorer. This new system is primarily HTML5 elements and unfortunately IE is now an obsolete dead-end that does not support modern web protocols and markup. Try it with Firefox, Chrome, or Edge.

I voted yes on Windows, and am using IE 11.

Lord have mercy on your soul...

I like how even Microsoft knows their browser is shit and doesn't bother trying to keep up with the others. "Internet Explorer, the number 1 browser for downloading another browser"

Working in Linux mint firefox.

Works fine on my Macbook running through Chrome.

Working like a charm for me on Windows 10 using Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, and on my iPhone and iPad using Safari.

Works fine. I used Chrome in Windows 10

Yes, Windows 10, tested in FireFox, Chrome, and even Microsoft Edge.

Would have been much better if she was sitting in a white plastic chair though.

PieSlide with the extra credit points here! Teacher's pet!

Thanks to everyone who participated. Very informative. Looks like for once, iPad/iPhone users are not going to get screwed.

If you were wondering what this was all about, all will be revealed on or about March 1st 2019. Stay tuned for an announcement.


Ooooooohhh, mysterious.....

Works on Windows desktop and Android phone. Will try Chromebit later.

It doesn't seem to be working in Lynx on OpenBSD 2.8

Have you tried hitting it?

Just tried on my TI-83... no luck...
