I'm sad to see this go, a remnant of another web which could have been. I spent a fair bit of time playing with Beaker and hacking it up for my own purposes. We actually had a discussion a few years ago where I made a suggestion about change to the default behavior. At the time, you made a perfectly valid response and declined my suggestion, but I'm curious if your thinking is the same today, given how things played out: https://github.com/beakerbrowser/beaker/issues/1444 https://github.com/beakerbrowser/beaker/issues/1444

Hey Mizza, wow that issue is a throwback. I think I stand by my position. My concerns are still the same, and I don’t think your proposal would’ve changed the outcome for Beaker. I always felt the purpose of the project was to enable more open and hackable networked computing, and so adopting some adverse risk to improve availability felt like the wrong choice. I can understand why other folks with different missions would make a different choice.
