The switch to strict HTML compilation is just not cool, and actively prevents upgrading sites which need to deal with remote content that is not written in strict HTML. I also wish there could be a general purpose content processing API so

Or PERIBOARD-413 if you need steeper angle. Perixx keyboards are cheap (and you’ll feel this cheapness every time you use them) but that’s why they are so good: a low-barrier entry to try out ergonomic keyboards before moving on to somethin

Once upon a time, I was looking forward to open source Mojo, but over years that interest has waned. And with latest acquisition event, the entire thing might as well be dead and buried.
