19:06:38 <mkwst> ... [Intros]
19:07:36 <mkwst> ... SyncXHR blocks the UI.
19:07:41 <mkwst> ... It's bad.

19:07:56 <mkwst> ... Firefox does special work to work around for input events(?)
19:08:05 <mkwst> ... Slowly decreasing over the last few years.
19:08:14 <mkwst> ... ~0.8% this year, not decreasing anymore.
19:08:28 <mkwst> ... Many top sites use it today: Twitter, Facebook.
19:10:02 <mkwst> ... [scribe screwed up, sorry]
19:10:13 <mkwst> rbyers: Some native platforms prevent sync activity entirely.

19:10:28 <mkwst> jatinder: At a high level, we all recognize that sync XHR is an anti-pattern.
19:10:37 <mkwst> ... It would be great if we could do something together here.
19:10:49 <mkwst> Angelo: Ideas contributed by folks in the doc.
19:10:58 <mkwst> ... https://docs.google.com/document/d/1G4-oIXQBcqysk4PNHBzCE4XAaGURipPTbajfx5iDIRc/edit
19:11:21 <mkwst> ... Idea 1: Prohibit usage in certain scenarios (like `beforeunload`)
19:14:49 <horo> horo has joined #syncxhr
19:15:43 <rbyers> mkwst: Idea 4: Why not make it slower and slower
19:15:56 <rbyers> jatinder: how bad would it be if we just broke it?
19:16:15 <rbyers> slightlyoff: Do we know why Twitter is using it?
19:16:17 <rbyers> jatinder: No
19:16:42 <rbyers> slightlyoff: I'll reach out to them now
19:18:15 <rbyers> jatinder: How should it fail?
19:19:09 <rbyers> ... (poor wifi making scribing hard)
19:19:59 <rbyers> ojan: seems most common in unload/beforeunload
