Always call JOSM over http

Open grischard opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Https in JOSM is unreliable and will be dropped soon. See https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/10033

All modern browsers support calling 127.0.0.1 over http even from https pages, per spec:

w3c/webappsec-mixed-content@349501c https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-secure-contexts/#is-origin-trustworthy

JOSM's default behaviour is to run without https.

Openstreetmap.org itself also always calls JOSM over http.
