The world needs a new Flash-like, interactive, animatable, graphics format. I want to see something like a nice interactive chart and be able to right-click save it, instead of just taking a static screen shot of it.

I built a chart component (in Lit) for my work with right-click and export to image, vector or data formats. I built it years ago, nobody uses the exports. They take a screenshot and paste it in to a chat bot 😔

I reckon there’s a whole world of great software buried behind right-click that never gets explored.

Oh probably, so I also put it in a little button at the bottom of the chart. I often see its smeared remnant in the copy-pasted screenshot AI-ed into a presentation.

yeah it's a crime that you can't, for instance, take a dashboard|chart out of grafana as a dataset to interact with elsewhere
