WebM support on 4chan

Tumblr doesn't support HTTPS, unfortunately. HTTPS Everywhere will need to update the 4chan config to account for it.

Moot, fix the mime type of those pages. On Android it opens the new url on the browser and only when the browser got the file header it calls the video app to start the download again. I'm pretty sure there are ways for the link to go directly to the video app

We already send the proper MIME type:

  Content-Type: video/webm

Android is dumb then... Not surprised.

IIRC Android matches on the file extension in the URL...

Looks like they are in a freeze period waiting for a stable release and won't touch any rules for the time being. Happy regular expression fun times ahead.

I think it'll be in the new release; there was a ruleset freeze to work out kinks for quite some time.

Are you going to be using this tumblr blog instead of /news from now on?

Not instead of, but in addition to: http://blog.4chan.org/post/81891220996/reintroducing-the-4ch...
