Oh, and also, I should say anyone interested can join that "chat" (not that there will be anyone, mind you)... And it's especially slow today - not seen it like this before. Barely possible I'm hitting the extent of my s

We can "chat" in this ibGib: https://www.ibgib.com/as-chat/pic%5E6F40CA17107671491E64DB0B... I've started to respond a little bit to your conclusion of seeing different front pages. Note that the site se

Yes, I instinctively agree with you. But what about sink investments? Also, what about borderline protocol implementation improvements? Death of a thousand papercuts...that kind of thing? Does keeping the algorithm source in the open, whi

Do you believe that a completely in-the-open forum would be manageable? By this, I mean things like: - Everyone gets to see... - who does the up/down votes. - what any moderators' decisions/actions are -

"Reworking" identity from the ground up as OP suggests is actually one of the goals that I've been working on with ibGib. No one really cares, but I'm going to describe some of the more interesting (to me) aspects of it,

Yes, this. Although, for a Vimperator replacement because of the breaking FF/Vimperator upgrades, I've found VimFX to be pretty awesome. I had to write some configuration scripts to get d/D to drop tabs like Vimperator, but o

I must say that this is one of my primary use cases for ibGib. The point is to have a review system (and advertising) that is not superficial but rather the "review" lasts the lifetime of the product. When you buy an appliance, yo
