@nerdy.dev @una.im @bram.us I need help with something. I'm trying to use `@media (hover)` in production code for a few years but I always have problems with Samsung and some Xiaomi phones. They always report as having hover. (1/?)

(2/?) There's this ticket on Chromium stating a possible cause and with some suggestions on how to fix it on the browser, since Samsung doesn't seem interested in fixing it. issues.chromium.org/issues/40855...

(3/?) This is a know bug that affects a huge amount of phones since 2019. For comparison, Samsung + Xiaomi have more market share than Apple globally. Yet, @media(hover) is still being used on every demo under the sun and evangelized as the right solution. Honestly, I'd love if that was the case.

(4/4) Problem is: It looks like the tickets are stuck in a limbo and with no solution in sight. How could I get more involved with this issue and help getting this fixed? I'm passionate about progressive enhancement, and I'd really love to be able to use this in production.
