   You can also use the built-in web browser without jailbreaking Kindle: https://github.com/matopeto/kindle-weather-dashboard or my https://github.com/niutech/kindle-dashboard

   Check out LILYGO T5 4.7 Inch E-paper based on ESP32 for $33: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002006058892.html Or you can repurpose an old Kindle: https://github.com/matopeto/kindle-weather-das

   Could you provide a link to this WASM implementation? I can find JXL-WASM decoder, which is 1.23 MB: https://unpkg.com/browse/jxl-wasm@0.7.0/lib/

   Anybody remembers Yahoo Pipes with YQL? This looks similar.

   You can still use VK on iOS in the web browser. You can even add a shortcut to home screen from Safari Mobile.

   There is a similar project RetroArch ( https://www.retroarch.com ) with WebAssembly engine ( https://web.libretro.com ). Also worth mentioning: WASM-4 ( https://wasm4.org )

    How about Krita, Inkscape, PenPot? What's wrong with them?

    Maybe you could continue developing Kosmonaut? https://github.com/twilco/kosmonaut

    There is something like it called Project Gemini: https://gemini.circumlunar.space

    Yes, it should work. There are also cross-platform alternatives: Sciter and Ultralight.

    There is already Webkit.js: http://trevorlinton.github.io/

    Theoretically it should be possible to build Ladybird for Windows using Cygwin. For now, you can run an AppImage in WSL: https://github.com/SerenityOS/ladybird/issues/33#issuecommen...

    One possibility to dethrone Chrome would be to release Safari for Windows and Linux as open source.

    Try Ubuntu Touch (UBports) - it features Libertine with full Linux apps, including Firefox.

    Cool idea! Will it be possible to provide a list of HN articles (eg. the best of the week) to send to Kindle (or ePub)? Thanks!

    There is a solution how to get the old Facebook post URL posted in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32118095

    Maybe the problem lies in too many dependencies in the first place? Nowadays JS development is super bloated.

    You can use Google search instead: https://www.google.com/search?q=whatever&tbm=vid&lr=lang_en&...

    There is also SliTaz Linux, whose ISO is only 43 MB ( https://www.slitaz.org/en/get/#rolling ).

    You can use a lightweight and modern web browser like Epiphany or Pale Moon.

    As for lightweight Electron alternatives, we already have Neutralinojs, Tauri, NodeGui, DeskGap, Ultralight.

    You can easily add that filters by yourself: just append "-site:ranker.com -site:vulture.com" to your search query, e.g. by setting the search URL to: " https://www.google.com/search?q=%s+-site%3Aranker.com+-si

    You can also make your own filters using Google Programmable Search Engine.

    This is not so innovative, you've been able to do so for many years using Google Custom Search (now Programmable Search Engine) - e.g. many years ago I made an open source projects search: https://cse.google.com/cse?cx=

    I made a goggle for searching open source project in Github, Gitlab, Bitbucket, etc.: https://search.brave.com/goggles/discover?goggles_id=https%3... I am open for suggestions how to improve it.
