>This repurposing of "edge" to mean "browser" continues to confuse me.
I did Ctrl+F search for "edge" in this thread's article and all 23 instances of it seems to be talking about computing on an edge node such as a CDN. Example sentence: "Edge-Ready Drivers -- Regarding supporting connections from the edge, [...] Things have been changing fast. PlanetScale announced its “Fetch API-compatible” database driver a few months ago, making it fully useable from Vercel Edge Runtime and Cloudflare Workers."
Can you point to where you think he used "edge" to be synonymous with Chrome/Firefox?
It’s funny as servers locally or regionally, co-located close to users, was this stupid legacy thing a couple of years ago.
I remember being at a conference and everyone being amazed that Chick-Fil-A dared the impossible - putting K8S clusters at each store to run operations. Lol.
