@ben_lubar why's that?
-
Because alternate URL protocols can do super annoying and/or dangerous things. For example,
javascript:
is an "alternate URL protocol".ms-settings:
is another one.
-
@ben_lubar You could use a blacklist, or a -looking
::before
. But stuff likesteam://
can be useful.

@ben_lubar If you're making a point, I'm missing it.

@pie_flavor
It is clear: admins find it unsafe.

What stops people from doing that with an actual image link? Or just dragging-and-dropping the horrible image on the page?
-
@blakeyrat I don't know how steam's handler works; maybe that causes the URL to be opened in steam's browser, potentially bypassing any blocker addons in the normal browser?
-
@pleegwat Well ok but scenario #2: "drag and drop the horrifying image onto the page" still works either way.

As a child I appeared in a training video for educators on Gopher.
One of my lines was "it's short for go for!"

@weng
This explains soooo much

@lorne-kates Never mind the site! It's the goddamn protocol that brings back flashbacks…
[EDIT] Why is that a weary cat face?! Our cats look nothing like that when they're tired.

That's a strange definition of "short".
