But there are many times when the client _is_ the browser. Are you sure you're not confused by that?

I've been using purelymail for multiple domains (with low traffic granted) for about ten years. I've never experienced an outage so far. Support has never failed to respond in the under 5 times I needed it.

What was the "stuff that's already implemented"? Xorg? Which distribution has dropped Xorg?

I wonder if the latency is due to the compositor receiving a damage event for the area of the cursor, thus being a frame late to render. But probably that wouldn't be an issue with hardware cursors.

Sadly as far as I'm aware the fediverse developers have been mostly against adding monetization means to their projects, with a couple of small exceptions related to cryptocurrencies. I think Dan (Loops main dev) would do well to imple

But being able to launch your own instance where you get 100% of all the money spent by the users either through ads or directly is a pretty good incentive, and beats what any other platform offers, no? The trick is to get high enough numbe

I managed to train Facebook out of showing me ads. It took about two years of monthly clicking on "I don't want to see content from this page again" for it to stick, but now I haven't seen an ad in forever. Either I exha

> Mastodon lacks what BlueSky has - a company with money driving the experience forward and getting everyone going in the same direction. Which is a good thing from the spec point of view but maybe bad from a user adoption point of view.

One would think they'd at least respect the cache-control directives. Those have been in the web standards since forever.

And which reasons do you think Google absolutely has in order to disable completely the usage of the search engine without Javascript?

I would assume it's mostly marketing. There's no entity behind IRC to push its adoption and herd the cats to a singular goal. The lack of features that Slack/Discord specifically added to differentiate themselves from IRC are

I mean, you can connect to twitch using a standard IRC client. And it works equally well, better in some respects, as the browser chat has become a sluggish mess. There are stand-alone twitch chat clients now which support all its extra bli

Haha, you know what would prevent that? That's right, having less submissions about it. :P

I think that the biggest IRC channels are on twitch. Large streamers have tens of thousands of people in their channels, and probably the servers must have millions in aggregate.

I somewhat agree, but that does not require face to face interaction in my opinion, which was parent's thesis I was arguing against.

ZA/UM is also the name of a physical artefact in the Disco Elysium universe. It gets used in the novel Kurvitz wrote: Sacred and Terrible Air.

I think you're talking about generic Linux distributions without a corporate backed concerted and invested effort into it succeeding. A Linux based Steam console OS is a very different beast, and it's less about "the year of

Why do you need to put faith in them? Switching email providers is just a DNS change away, and email messages can be stored locally - actually it's encouraged to do so.

I have no idea why that's a thing. :D Personally I use the simple pricing scheme and looking at billing page, I pay around ~$0.35-0.4 monthly for 5 domains, with 4 explicitly set email addresses and catch-all for all domains to a commo

My suggestion would be to try Purelymail. They don't offer much in the way of a web interface to email, but if you bring your own client, it's a very good provider. I'm paying something like $10 per year for multiple domains

Exactly, and that's what OP argues for, albeit in a very complex manner. Distilling their implementation to the basics, that's what we get: typed errors that wrap the Go standard library's ones with custom logic. Frankly I do

Cool, but error.Is what? In my case would both come as a os.NotExist errors because both are files on the disk. I think that the original dismissal I replied to, might not have taken into account some of the complexities that OP most likely

Do you maybe have a constructive advice for people that need to return errors that demand different behaviour from the calling code? I gave an example higher in the thread: if searching for the entity that owns the creds.json files fails, w
