Show HN: Pollyanna, a framework for consensual websites from creator of bash.org
Pollyanna is a framework for building community websites with an emphasis on consent and accessibility.
For operators and administrators, Pollyanna supports every released software
version indefinitely, forgoing forced updates or any coercion.
For users and clients, Pollyanna facilitates full account and data ownership
and accessibility. Users should be able to access or not access the service as
they see fit and in whatever way they see fit, as long as it is with the consent
of the operator. Users should be able to see, with full transparency, all the
data and information contained in the service.
Pollyanna bends over backwards to accommodate every user and client,
regardless of their access method of choice, browser and configuration,
connection speed, device type, abilities, and situation.
Pollyanna tries to perpetuate the Any Browser philosophy, and is regularly
tested with a variety of browsers and configurations. In particular, Pollyanna
has been tested with popular versions of Lynx, Mosaic, Netscape, Internet Explorer,
Opera, Firefox, Brave, Safari, and even Google Chrome.
