A key critique
The article is well argued and well written, as far as I’m concerned.
What’s needed if you really want adoption is to define a term; something like 256-ex for extended. Or whatever. But folks and apps need to be able to say; we’ve implemented or we support 256-ex. Without this label is hard to drive adoption.
The heartbleed thing from a few years back best taught me this.
Good luck I hope to see broad adoption it’s a great idea.
Give it a name, better yet move the copy onto a website with the same name also and a little icon folks can add to their website if they implement this k to their terminal app.
