This is the dumbest nitpick, but: > 4chan's design is early web 2.0 Web 2.0 (even early) was very JS heavy, coming down from the advent of Mootools/Prototype/etc and had a very specific visual design sense. 4chan is easi

4chan has always claimed to resist it, but 4chan was never immune to being shuffled a specific way.

Subject lines of emails are not E2E in Protonmail, nor have they ever claimed them to be. It's likely that and it's not really news.

Every single point that you want to try here has nothing to do with implementing a smooth scrolling, buttery UI/UX of a chat application. Please stop moving the goalposts if you want to actually discuss this. I also frankly don't

This is such an odd comment. What on earth makes you think that the same engineers responsible for fluid and smooth UI/UX are the ones who’d ever influence the cryptography/privacy/security? Whether or not the chats are encry

I'll tell you what's right about Telegram: I don't know how they're the only independent app that seems to be able to produce such a well built UI/UX for a chat application in 2025. I maintain that someone should

It does not matter: FreeBSD has languished in development for wifi drivers for years now. FreeBSD does not have modern wifi, it is a simple statement.

> Wifi not being available isn't the fault of FreeBSD. No. Just because it's available doesn't mean it's good . Until FreeBSD supports modern Wifi (4/5, i.e 802.11n/ac) then you're just ticking the b

And I'm saying that's a somewhat ridiculous premise, because a simple systemd configuration will "just work" 99% of the time. That complexity is not something the generic case needs to care about.
557.
by Klonoar 2y ago
I don't particularly care about those details. I was mostly pointing out to the parent commenter that it does exist there now.

by Klonoar 2y ago
Wifi? You mean the thing where people often resort to running a Linux VM to handle it?

by Klonoar 2y ago
Basic systemd is really not that complex.

Postmarket actually wound up porting systemd somewhat recently. https://postmarketos.org/blog/2024/03/05/adding-systemd/

I mean, this is really about the model from 2007+. That model in particular was incredible at the time and the fact that it held on so long is remarkable.
