No hope, no cope. Just a basic understanding on how the HTTP infrastructure and time dilation work.

You can have one or two execs, as a treat; but certainly they don’t need to be paid crazy figures like what has been the case with Mozilla as of late. It’s not like they’re that important, in particular for the kind of project something like Firefox is (which could do with eg.: coop governance).

Okay, but what if after all this legal action Mozilla decides that it’s no longer worth serving the privacy conscious crowd? Which browser will you use then?

Firefox.

Just because the execs decide to stop serving the software, doesn’t mean the copies (and source code!) already out in the wild will automagickally stop functioning. You’ll still be able to visit websites the day after, the month after, the year after… And there’s still the devs, since they’re not the execs.

By the time there’s issues, there’ll still be the forks. Someone will have already step up to fork and keep the work on their own, too; the name just weighs enough that someone will want to be “the next Firefox” (not “the next Mozilla”). Or even better, the devs (obvs not the execs) will have jumped ship into any one of the various alternative projects such as ladybird, or might even have started a new project from scratch, hopefully intending for it to be a leaner and better browsr.

NOYB would’ve done much better by talking to Mozilla directly and advocating for them to do the right thing going for a legal complaint as the final nuclear option. I

It has been already vastly demonstrated by Mozilla, that going to them and talking to them about how they shouldn’t do shitty things doesn’t work.

If it takes legal action to even try and save the browser, I’m all for it.

Like “Usonian”, not like “USonian”, I’d guess? Flat U, non-“yoo”-ed; stress on the O; the “nian” more or less like “nyan” but 'murrically less cute.

But there’s not really another good demonym that’s not an slur. “Estadosunidenses” is too much of a mouthful and “Statesman” has another meaning.

Usonian?

or Germany. And I only identify the latter as such, because of…

…ich_iel?

Not with that attitude!

I’m already on IRC and XMPP. be the change you want to see.

Same. We should head back to ICQ!

Yeah we only need 2 brainRusts more to start seeing some fun.

Oh, we heard, Rust is the greatest invention since sliced bread. We heard it already. Like 65534 times.

Now that would be the day!

Finally.

At the moment I’m testing Hedgedoc, I took a quickie look at haste-server but from what I read it got enshittified a while ago while I was busy not looking at it lol. Anyway I’ve looked at other alternatives from the link and from selfhosting communities and both OpenGist and ExBin are looking at the things for me to try next for comparison. Thanks for the guidance!

So I’m running a Hedgedoc instance this week to test how things are going. Feels like one of the better choices.

Yeah honestly sometimes Dokuwiki feels like it’s the Konami cheat code for “simple good personal website”. I’m like, why would anyone bother with stuff like, dunno, Wordpress, or Github Pages.

My hoster has been so nice to get me access to the docker on-site, so I’m gonna be testing stuff for a few days. I can’t take a look at logseq until the weekend alas, due to work suddenly being work.

Fun that you mention that, I happen to run my personal site, as well as another wiki for my Pokémon-related fanwork, and an internal kb wiki on my job, all on Dokuwiki. Used to advertise the engine more on Reddit back in the day, too. And sure it’s quite lightweight and operable (I can edit articles remotely, manage remotely and do lots of cool stuff). Its just, from my experience so far, while it’s extremely well-suited for the workflow of a wiki, it’s not so much for the “post-it note” workflow, not even with additions like the Blog plugin.

Perhaps I have to yet tune it further. I guess it’s time to Do Science.

That’s a lot of info to work with, thanks! Seems there has been a lot of thought and deelopment about this and I just basically didn’t know exactly what to search for.

Explicitly mention Twitter, Facebook, is an advancement. Let’s see if they have some utility or strategy for Discord-style short snippets.

Wow you have given me good things to think about. At first I was thinking I’d want solely text, but now I’m thinking what I’d want would be something closer to hypertext / Rich Text since that’s how the content shows in sites already. So something like a “HTML pastebin” or somesuch would work, I guess?

(HedgeDoc looks interesting, am going to look around for a demo)
