Why did they remove it though? I was surprised too when I found out I needed to run local webserver to access local html files

It was because of โ€˜securityโ€™, which was never explained. And it doesnโ€™t make much sense when other browsers can and do alow it. Iโ€™ll see if I can dig up some historical links if I remember tomorrow.

Last time I checked,there was still no acknowledgement of it and appeared to be no intention of ever addressing it. The fact that theyโ€™re now telling people to run a webserver suggests that nothing has changed โ˜น๏ธ
