@readbeanicecream The traditional blog-way to comment on someone else's blog post is to reblog: (a) Blog your well-considered comment on your own blog & (b) hyperlink to the original post

I believe in a collective web for all.

Where not one has more power than another.

Where we are all equal.

To connect.

To grow.

To share.

To learn.

To have freedom.

A place where we all can win.

As said by a famous YouTuber, you cannot browse the web without an adblocker.

There was a time when ads weren’t intrusive nor abusive. Today, the cost of blocking them is lower than the cost of displaying them, even in terms of bandwidth and CPU cycles.

You should go scorched earth with adblocking. No exceptions.

"In Mandarin Chinese, World Wide Web is commonly translated via a phono-semantic matching to wàn wéi wǎng (万维网), which satisfies www and literally means "10,000-dimensional net", a translation that reflects the design concept and proliferation of the World Wide Web."

Unfortunately the folks at the 🎤 #eurovision2025 are mixing up the 🌐 #internet and the #web. 🫣

Folks joining ⛰️ @helvetic_ruby's trip to ⚛️ #CERN will learn the difference in case they don't know it yet. 😉

I'm so sorry about that @timbl. 🥲

Sto scoprendo, per la prima volta in Vita mia (non credo di averlo mai fatto prima), le gioie della navigazione su #Internet senza avere #JavaScript attivo.

Nessun annuncio inutile o non richiesto.
Nessun popup in sovrimpressione.
Nessun "Accetta o Abbonati".

Solo ed esclusivamente il contenuto richiesto. Né più, né meno.
Il tutto, condito da una reattività fulminea e impressionante.

Is this the promised World Wide #Web? 🥹

back when i first joined mastodon, one of the many surprising things i learned was that gopher had made a return to the public sphere after decades of obscurity.

i grew up with gopher and archie and veronica and many other www-alt protocols before getting hooked on the world wide web. they taught me how to hunt for things, in a time when web search didn't exist yet.

i've spent every day of the past week adding a new feature to kiki that i'm incredibly proud of, after hearing from several folks - namely @tomjennings and @scott, who (like me) are hungry for an information-dense and cruft-free internet

this works by turning your kiki pages into gopherspace pages through some formatting magic and textmunging. so now, you can host your kiki instance on both the www and in gopherspace, simultaneously.

it will be released in an upcoming version of kiki, available soon here: tomo-dashi.itch.io/kiki

A screenshot of two windows:
(top)
A web browser showing the default kiki install homepage which is formatted in HTML. All links are inline.

(bottom)
A gopherspace browser showing the default kiki install homepage, formatted in gopherspace format. It has a few lines of text, a horizontal line, and then 3 lines of footnoted links.

Both read "You did it! kiki is up and running. This home page, is the default index page for any new installation. You can either edit this page to be your new landing page, or create a new page and set that one to be the default.
If this is your first time using kiki, you'll probably want to read the help index page or go straight to the Getting Started Guide."
