I believe I saw some kind of 'Test this with Ruffle' notice under some submission a while back, with the alternative to also go with the NG Player instead, but seems this isn't a default? Was it just a temporary thing? Seems useful to be able to switch between these yourself, in case one doesn't work.
It would be ideal to give the user a toggle and also a way to log issues / confirm something works but hard to say how much front-end & database development should happen around something that wouldn't be a long-term fixture of the site (when I look back on NG, it can be frustrating how much our limited dev resources can get spent on short-term / temporary things vs the long-term features)... Movies will likely remain messy for a bit and then we'll move ahead more slowly with games when the time comes.
Hmm I really thought I'd seen the notice already, thought you might have changed your mind about having it there, or that maybe the switch functionality wasn't all working as it should...
Having a way to log errors does sound like a more time-tasking addition, and maybe not a long-term one, but simply being able to switch between available formats seems like something that could be around for a long time. And an instant fix for any problems people might be having with Ruffle content, if it is a significant amount of content.
Exciting times with this development stuff though, and so much working already.
