I've published another #browser demo on the #IPFS: a web-based mail user agent prototype (from 2021).
"We could build something better in a just weekend! And it'd even fit into the memory of a C64!" – That's what I told a friend when they complained about today's slow, bloated #webmail #frontends. And I did, in… let's say an extended weekend:
A modern, mostly-featured yet minimal webmail prototype weighing in at just ~40 kB gzipped (incl. all #HTML, #JavaScript, #SVG)
Kenne ich hier jemanden aus dem GR Stuttgart, der oder die an einem Teilzeitjob im Umfeld der Webentwicklung interessiert ist?
Ein paar Stichworte zum technischen Umfeld:
Serverseitiges Rendering in #Smalltalk
Laufende Verbesserung #UX / #Design des Web-#Frontends
Javascript / Integration mit Backend
Empathie für Legacy Code 😉
Ein Händchen für gutes GUI Design wäre wichtig.
Mehr gerne im persönlichen Austausch.

↪️What do they say about #dxday? ↩️[1/3]
"Even if in its first edition, dxday has all it takes to become an unmissable appointment for all #frontends who want to become even better day after day"
""It was an honor to be a part of such a stellar event, and I'm already looking forward to next year's conference. 🎤🇮🇹"
So, why would you miss the second edition?😃

@stefan found a couple things in there to share in our work #frontends channel. Thanks as always!
#TIL about #Materialious;
"... a privacy respecting frontend for YouTube built ontop of Invidious."
If you love the most advanced fedi front-end @phanpy as much as I do, consider donating a few bucks to support @cheeaun 's awesome work:
Like it or not, #Mastodon successfully did an #EEE of the #Fediverse as far as API is concerned.
Non-Mastodon software with Mastodon API implemented can be connected to third-party services like brid.gy and fedica.com, to mention a few.
It is rare to see third-party services implement any support for non-Mastodon software using their respective API. #Fedica recently added #Pixelfed support; and a few other alt #frontends support either #Misskey or #Pleroma.
So… yeah, there's no doubt the “competition” is over as far as this particular usage is concerned. Mastodon won, got what it wants. Either implement it and allow your users to use other third-party software… or don't and wait for other developers to support your platform.
Not good, but we have to face the reality sooner rather than later, so we can move forward. Maybe make it part of #ActivityPub 2.0 and finally have a universal fediverse API that all can agree with and use.

#LibRedirect is a web #browser extension that #redirects requests to popular websites like #youtube #Twitter, #tiktok and others to alternative #privacyfriendly #frontends and backends.
Weiß jemand ob #Youtube irgendwas geändert hat, damit einbettungen bzw. #alternative #Frontends mal wieder nicht funktioniern - (also innerhalb der letzten 24h) 🤔
#Invidious #piped #tubearchivist
LibRedirect - розширення для браузерів з відкритим кодом для автоматичного перенаправлення посилань на альтернативні, вільні фронтенди закритих вебресурсів.

When it comes to #privacy , I always don't get one point: why do people *try* to replace everything with #privacyfocused alternatives and #frontends ?
Say, YouTube. I've seen people recommedning to me #Individious and #piped to use instead of youtube.com.
Why? I can just use #YouTube with uBlock Origin and other browser extensions installed.
And the list is keep going on.....

You can hate me as much as you want, but I use youtube.com when it comes to watch videos.
Ya que estoy, un #frontend que recomiendo para #youtube es
Tiene el mismo propósito que twiiit pero para youtube, al depender de varias instancias / servers nunca va a estar caído, el único problemita es que cada tanto hay que ir a los ajustes y cambiar el server.

#Nitter una de las herramientas que recomienda es twiit.com
¿Y para que sirve?
Para que en vez de usar twitter.com uses twiit.com y este al depender de varios servers nunca estará caído.

Buddy. I‘m serving JPEG XL. This *is* the next-gen image format. I don’t want your image containers!
Now that a bunch of code in GitHub repos isn't visible without running MicroSoft's proprietary JS, it would be great to have a software freedom-protecting front-end for browsing GH itself. Of course, Free Code projects moving off GH onto community-hosted code forges is the ideal solution, but in the meantime...

Anyone else noticing that YouTube seems to be cracking down on full album uploads and alternative front-ends like Invidious and Piped?
I've tried various #Mastodon #frontends and I've found #Trunks to be the best (so far).
1. Easiest way to check notifications.
2. Multi-column
3. Loads fast
4. Available in Android with the same layout and feature set.
* Also available in iOS (but I haven't tested this, I don't have an iOS unit).
5. For me, it sits between barebones and eye-candy UI
At least those are the ones I can remember quickly, or those that struck me as important.
Give it a try here: https://trunks.social (updated link with non-alpha)
