lojban.pw's Issues

Unable to play sounds on iOS

Hey there! Just found some long sought time to learn some Lojban, and I easily found out about this page. Looks good! However, the sounds are encoded in Vorbis and saved on an Ogg container, which are not supported by Safari at all: https://caniuse.com/ogg-vorbis

Best alternatives I can think of are MP3 (since the coding format and container are both patent/royalty-free now) and Opus (sadly only currently supported with a CoreAudio container, but I think it is also free of legal issues). Both can be provided alongside the existing Ogg files and/or each other if so desired.
