The IndieWeb people use Microformats[1] extensively for things like Webmention[2] and such. Seems quite neat, though maybe I'd prefer the tags to be data attributes instead of classes.

Yeah that looks to be the case. Reading the OpenFront readme, it looks like they transitioned to the AGPL believing it to be stricter (which it might be?).

What's also funny is the FrontWars fork's readme.md [1] has not been changed at all, and still credits the OpenFront maintainer as the project maintainer:

> The project maintainer (evan) has final authority on all code changes and design decisions

It is stricter in the sense that AGPL says you have to release source code even if you only distribute the software to a user via a network (i.e., browser) as opposed to a direct/binary distribution.

So in my lay (possibly incorrect) opinion the AGPL made the difference in them having to release the code at all. So in that way it did help. If the user thought this would stop clones then they don't understand software licensing (nor open source).


I use google-webfonts-helper (https://gwfh.mranftl.com/fonts) to get google fonts


Just found out about this recently. So lean and snappy compared to the default interface.


How much they should make I'd say is up to how much you value them. If you really like an artist and want to support them, a objectively better way than just streaming their music is purchasing their albums, vinyls, merch, etc.


Firefox now has improved Profile mangement

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-management


Firefox profiles are still janky and I had a lot of issue switching and managing two profiles effectively. Specifically the biggest problem I had was that clicking on work links would not open them in my last used profile (work profile). They would always open in a default profile (non-work).

I ended up keeping chrome just for work, and using firefox for personal life.

Then I grabbed Browser Tamer and set up an AHK v2 script that, when I click on and focus any browser window, it executes browser tamer's CLI to update the default browser. Thus I get the behavior of "open links in last used browser", which is the correct browser for whatever link I click 99.9% of the time.


OK, that mental overhead of "last used browser" would drive me nuts.

My solution is: The system has a default browser that opens default links. On my work machine I have a different browser where I am for example logged in to my private github account I just never want to open a clicked link there anyway. Copy/pasting 2 times per day is fine.


so youre just manually doing what i automated but that 1% of the time when it opens in the wrong browser is too much mental overhead? if youre at work and you tap a link you were almost certainly last using your work profile so its nearly always right and its not something i ever have to think about


I hope they don't get rid of `about:profiles` which is perfect for anything I wanted to do with profiles in the last decade.


I'm on Firefox 142 and the "account icon" menu only has "Sign in", "Monitor", "Relay" and "Mozilla VPN". No mention of profiles.

Edit: found it: it's hidden behind the browser.profiles.enabled setting in about:config


This initially excited me, but its pretty poor compared to what Chrome and Chrome based browsers provide.


I really like the idea!

But an instant drawback I see is keyboard accessibility.

The focused element is lost whenever you navigate to a new page, meaning I have to tab all the way through the menu again to get to where I was.

An example: I tab 4 times to get to the open menu "button", press enter, and then I have to tab 4 times again to actually enter the menu.


Would love to have a ergonomic hall effect keyboard!

I daily drive the Moonlander, both for work and gaming, and it's honestly really good. Would be awesome to get a similar keyboard but with magnetic keys.


First time browsing this website, and it seems like an amazing project!

I particularly like that they link to places where you can purchase a song or album. As someone who's considering streaming my music from a local server, those links could come in real handy!
