I run a service[1] that was getting hit pretty hard by these crawlers. Ultimately instead of going down this path, I decided to just start charging for access to the service (it was long overdue)[2]. Users who are logged out can still see o

Jwno is a tiling window manager written in Janet (a Lisp). This is a really detailed post about adding the scrolling functionality you may have seen in PaperWM or Niri.

I maintain a tiling wm written in Rust, and I just cannot imagine having the patience to do this kind of work in JS/TS. My respect to mathuo! One of the coolest things I've seen on HN recently.
