Being an asshole? For saying "could have fooled me" to one of the 6 posts on a brand new account heavily advertising video.js benefits in response to my post mentioning that the video element is already both powerful and easy to use, and that adding HLS.js to add HLS support to it for browsers that don't support it natively is dead simple?

I guess your threshold for calling someone an asshole is a bit low.

I don't have a problem with using video.js for the reasons the parent poster mentioned, but HTML5 video is insanely easy to implement, and there's no reason to take on a dependency like this if you don't need something beyond what the web platform already gives you.
