Jérôme Poisson: Libervia v0.8 « La Cecília »
I’m proud to announce the release of Libervia 0.8 « La Cecília » (formerly known as « Salut à Toi »), after more than 2 years of development.
This version is a big milestone preparing the future of the project. Let’s have an overview of some major changes.
Project RenamingIn the interest of simplicity, the project has been renamed to “ Libervia ” (with was formerly the name of the web frontend), and all official frontends have now a … ⌘ Read more

JavaScript : web apps
I understand the hate for JavaScript. But what option is there for writing web enabled applications for desktop / mobile?
“Browservice” brings modern web browsing to 1990s computers
Take a look at this: “What am I looking at?” That, right there, is Windows 3.11 (Windows for Workgroups)… loading up the Google Cloud VM manager. A website that requires a modern web browser. But, that isn’t a modern web browser. That is Internet Explorer 4.0. On Windows 3.11. Seriously. ⌘ Read more
I am using Nitter, an alternative interface for Twitter, just in case I want to read a thread on Twitter. Previously I hosted the instance directly on my VPS. Now, however, I host the Nitter instance at home, but make it available on the Internet through Tailscale, a little program I wrote called “ProxyExposer”, and Caddy. 🤓 I also briefly tried publishing a WordPress instance from home to the web this way. But I don’t have a use case for WordPress at the moment. ⌘ Read more
I will never understand this obsession with “scaling”. Modern web dev seriously over-complicates so many things, it’s not even funny anymore. How we built a serverless SQL database | Hacker News
Lots of downsides, too, but overall I still find it the most comfortable environment for anything that doesn’t need a web browser. :-)
We should be able to remove those subject hashtags, they’re just noise.
Yes! I would say they are not even needed on the web UI. You click conversations, and that’s done by Yarn. No need for humans to see it.
Is it me, or Gmail’s web interface is going down the drain? Using Safari—my default browser—often takes two, or three clicks to open an email. If it weren’t because its search is amazing, I would never visit its web interface.
@stigatle@twtxt.net
A twtxt client would be nice! Or a very simple cgi script to print twts to web nicely—not a second Yarn, just something to show twts in a pretty form on the web.
@prologic@twtxt.net Look on the web interface. Goryon needs work, but you mentioned that before.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I remember that time. I built my own mess, then used someone else’s mess (WordPress). I then switched to Jekyll when Tom released it, then to Hugo, which I use today. I also love static web stuff!

Every Web Browser Absolutely Sucks.
The title explains it all, you don’t even have to read.
There are no good, even passable web browsers. None. Not a single one even comes close.
The weird thing is this: making a good browser should be easy! Among the existing web browsers, you could assemble all the parts necessary for a passable (if not perfect) browser. No one has ever bothered to do this, instead, people assembled 90% good stuff and 10% junk.
Here I will list:

Bringing back old-school web pins and buttons
Back in the not-quite-as-bad-old-days (at least as far back as the 90’s), every good website had a small “ad” gif that fans of the site could use as a colorful link. These are called “buttons” or sometimes “pins.”
You can see sites that collect these internet artifacts (both the good ones and boring ones) here and here.

I feel like this could be borderline useful if I stuck a web UI on it. 🤔
