It's a shame browser makers removed FTP:// browsing support.
FTP was a lot more fun than the homogeneous blob of HTTP we have today. I only discovered FTP transparently via web browsing and clicking around as a kid.
- ratg13 8mo agoWhen I was 12-13, I attempted to download the entirety of a linux install CD this way because I was unaware of FTP clients.
- Linkd 8mo agoCould we build a web-based service that acts like an FTP browser for the internet?
- bigwheels 8mo agoYes you could, but ftp:// links still won't be clickable, which kills the discovery aspect. :: sadblob ::
