Other browsers on iOS are already supporting extensions, with WebKit limitations, including ones like uBO. iOS is not a priority for Mozilla at this point, or we’d have seen _some extension support_.

Another option that I’ve found worthwhile is to write a Jekyll Plugin, so you get a stable base for your SSG, and you can experiment with adding weird functionality on top. For my news website, I needed to scrape some news from a third part

You’re discounting the probability of SBF not going to jail and then making the world a better place. What’s the EV on that?

My primary experience with this has been with Kindles, and they are a delight to unbox due to FFP.

Strong agree. I use my country’s ccTLD as my primary domain, and my domain was stuck in limbo for 6 years where I could not move registrars because the Registry decided to do a hostile takeover of all domains managed by a specific registrar

Have bank accounts across 5 different banks and no freezes so far. The PAN Aadhaar linkage has caused some investment issues for me.

Caveat - only available to tourists from a G20 country, and they need to register while exiting at an airport. This doesn't work for our neighbouring countries - Bangladesh/Sri-Lanka/Nepal which have the highest number of vis

Minor clarification: UPI works fine without an Aadhaar. (I don't have an Aadhaar, and it works fine across multiple banks)

Managing Postgres, even via containers is not so simple. Upgrades between major versions will still need a backup+restore for eg. I run a single container Postgres for my homeserver, and have to deal with occasional issues that wouldn’t app

I collected clothing tags as a kid for a few months because I saw a kid on TV for collecting something inane (I forget what). Used to do Philately for a while before that. As an adult, I go by the motto of “Don’t save the candles”, which is

Aah, thanks a lot. I’ve been using Junction on KDE for this, which shows a selection screen for links clicked elsewhere.

I thought Signal-desktop was electron-only. Are you running it on Firefox, or is this something else.

If you have your DRM Keys from earlier from an older Kindle or PC-Installation - the keys can still be used to strip DRM from any new downloads from Amazon. The only exception is a few new KFX files, which are still unsupported by deDRM.

Not every account sets a public email, so this ensures that the app gets a reachable email address for every user.

I use <details> so it should have a helpful arrow in some browsers. Need to find the right mix, will try cursor, but that impacts selection.

I just set highlight words for cities and states I care about and that works well enough. (Bengaluru/Bangalore/Karnataka) The source is a national news app so anything important enough for other metros does show up.

I mention it in the about page, it’s based on a recent Indian news shorts app called Beatroot (“be true”). I haven’t looked at other regions, but there’s already some good plain text news websites for US/UK - https://greycod

The first Gen SE? Mine was getting too slow with iOS15 with barely 5 usable tabs in Firefox before app-switching would kill them. Plus, too many apps gave up on designing for small screens so I had lots of unreachable buttons and input boxe

I made a plain-text no frills news website for India: https://news.tatooine.club/ It shows news only from the last two days, there’s no infinite scrolling, no images, very little JavaScript, no ads, and no tracking. It has

Yeah, we did do this when we got large enough for a shared slack channel with aws. But for most orgs, just having this piped to your alerts channel is good enough.

For infra folks, I always suggest having a Slack channel with RSS feeds from vendor incident sites. Slack let’s you subscribe directly to an RSS feed using /feed.
