Explainer Storage partitioning explainer <https://github.com/wanderview/quota-storage-partitioning/blob/main/explainer.md#storage-apis> Summary We propose to remove support for loading media via filesystem:// URLs on Android. Motivation As part of our storage partitioning efforts, we will need to update Filesystem URLs to be partitioned by StorageKey rather than by Origin. Doing this will add complexity since the entire current codepath on Android is not dependent on Blink where StorageKey currently lives. On Android only 0.0000001% of URLs loaded by <audio> or <video> use the filesystem:// URL scheme and we consider this low enough usage to remove support, rather than do the work of partitioning. Note that this removal is only for Android. On other platforms there will be no effect and media playback of filesystem:// URLs will continue to work. Blink component Blink>Storage <https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=component:Blink%3EStorage> Initial public proposal None TAG review None TAG review status N/A Interoperability and Compatibility RiskInteroperability risk: The filesystem:// URL scheme was never widely adopted and is only implemented by Chrome. Therefore there should be no interoperability risks associated with this feature depreciation. Compatibility risk: This feature is very low usage as only 0.0000001% of URLs loaded by <audio> or <video> use the filesystem:// URL scheme. Therefore the expected compatibility risk is very low. Alternative implementation suggestion for web developers Developers can continue to load media from other schemes (http, https, blob, file, etc.).
