Doing video on the web really, really well is hard. Just today a customer asked me for help on why their videos worked on Chrome but not Safari iOS 🥴 Excited to have @muxhq join the @vercel marketplace to make <video> a great DX and UX for all 🙌
Mux Video is now available directly in the @vercel marketplace with the new Mux + Vercel integration

We built an open source set of web components for building media players called Media Chrome. I'm really proud of it! But, tbh, there was a lot of "draw the rest of the owl" vibes to actually make a nice player. I'm pumped to launch the rest of the owl: https://t.co/JdZISI4bLl

Substack is for video. Mux is for Substack. Huge props to Substack on the launch of their expanded video experience!
Today we’re excited to expand our video capabilities to support the great shows already being produced on Substack and to enable new types of subscriber-supported work built around video. https://t.co/jRoGUCRcgS

Currently reading the Web Platform Design Principles...for fun. I'm way too deep in this #webcomponents thing. And also this is a great resource for any API design.

From my @demuxed ⚡️ talk yesterday: thanks to web components you're now just one HTML tag away from using Shaka Player in your web app. https://t.co/5emau8YUmq cc @GoogleChromeDev since Joey and Shaka apparently aren't on Twitter 🙃

12 years ago, we built Video.js to replace Flash for web video. It’s time to do that again. Only this time, instead of introducing a new JS framework, we’re pulling the <video> tag into the future. Let’s take a trip down memory lane. 🧵
