  • Everything web based

    Jump

  • I used to be like this too. I thought it would be too mainstream to have a website rather than a natively compiled application running on the computer...

    And then my friend in high school started this thing on his laptop.. a website.. it was server side rendered.. pretty satisfying... Then it took off...

    I think the web can be nice with the right mix. I'm personally not too fan of these pages that are just white if you don't turn on JavaScript. It's just a feeling, nothing special. From a business perspective it makes sense, to throw all the rendering to the devices to save cost.

    What app/program do you wish existed and what does it do that you've not found elsewhere?

    Jump

  • A service or a website to find other websites. Search engine nowadays uses sentences, but why can't we use tags and filters?

    Google and duckduckgo may give 4 HUGE websites, but nothing more than that. Why can't I just see all the unique different services all listed up?

  • What are your most recently visited Wikipedia pages?

    Jump

  • Point Nemo

  • Europeans, how far do you walk for groceries?

    Jump

  • I might have been lucky, but all the places I've lived at in Norway was always under 10 minute of walking. I've lived in 4 different places across Agder.

  • How do you mateys and folks deal with the sheer amount of music available out there?

    Jump

  • I am fully involved with the music algorithm. I like that song!, clicks radio on it. Oh, this song is nice, clicks radio on that and so on.

    I discover music from whatever service has the best algorithm to find what I enjoy. Sometimes it's from amatures, sometimes it's from unheard of artists. I rarely ever hear a song with over 100,000 plays, and I believe nobody but my mom thinks my music taste is good...

  • How to combat large amounts of Ai scrapers

    Jump

  • I have a dumb question.. what is preventing the crawlers from just eating the shit and just burn though the energy to get through the computational task?

  • [ComiCSS] Benefits of Tailwind

    Jump

  • I wonder if any colorblind people completely didn't understand this meme

    Do you ever drink "strategically"?

    Jump

  • Hmmm, may drink strategically to dodge rules like no self brought alcohol on the festival, or a way to feel the effect good enough before needing to run to the bus.

    But to deal with drama? No that I'm taking fully in so I can learn from it if something similar happens again

  • Are you learning another language? How far along are you?

    Jump

  • I have pretty much been studying a language every day for the past 4 years, 3 years with Japanese and now 1 year with German.

  • What websites search function do you hate most?

    Jump

  • There are 2 instances that use anti bot features that I could find. That is https://search.canine.tools/ and https://search.fredix.xyz/

    Personally, the fastest and most reliable in my opinion are https://priv.au/ and https://searx.tiekoetter.com/ I used to use Tiekoetter's instance for nearly a year before I hosted my own. Otherwise I would recommend checking here: https://searx.space/

    With that said, I still didn't answer your question, because I am hosting my own instance, but I would not recommend joining unless you really want to. I'm going to move it to central Europe, it's currently hosted in Romania.

  • What websites search function do you hate most?

    Jump

  • Damn, is it actually Eivith? Thanks for all the support help in the Matrix chat

  • What websites search function do you hate most?

    Jump

  • Damn, I too went to this same route of Google -> duckduckgo -> Searx. While it is true searx is unreliable at times, if you enable more engines and find an instance that has anti botting features, it should be pretty solid

    What are some "toy programs" you've created?

    Jump

  • I made a website to practice reading my wristwatch: https://aadniz.github.io/niwa-practicer/ (works best on PC, and I'm well aware of many issues)

    Since depth is important to recognizing the odd and even, quickly mapping them to the number, I made it "fake" 3D, tracing each layer in krita.

    There was no deep motivation for this other than refreshing myself a bit of React from University. With my neverending list of project plans, I felt like this one was a good choice for that. Here is the source code: https://github.com/Aadniz/niwa-practicer

    How many of you use Lemmy and ONLY use Lemmy vs Reddit?

    Jump

  • I use Reddit to investigate niche topics. Sometimes I want people's say instead of these blogs showing top 10 house renting service.

    The pure scale of Reddit users makes it more attractive in this regards right now

  • JavaScript broke the web (and called it progress)

    Jump

  • Having 2 loads gives the illusion that it's fast, aka. not waiting staring at something not doing anything for too long.

    From a business perspective, isn't it best to just yeet most stuff to the front end to deal with?

  • In your opinion, what is the purpose of a legal system? And do you think that the legal system in the country you live in fulfills this purpose?

    Jump

  • First there was moral reasoning and feelings, then there were religion, and now there is laws. I think it works quite well for countries with a healthy government.

  • How much data do you require before you accept something as "fact"?

    Jump

  • I remember there was one fact I was really beating my head on; A dishwasher should always have some food or other gunk on the dishes before starting the machine, otherwise the detergent will attack the coloring on the dishes instead.

    How has no company solved this problem? It makes no sense. Many people do wash their kitchenware so it doesn't stink up the entire dishwasher if it has been sitting for a while... idk.

    I would be happy to hear if anyone can help confirm or dismiss this.

    I think I'm addicted to physical touch.. 21F. I don't know how to stop

    Jump

  • I would like to see your raw words and feelings instead though

  • What browser are you using?

    Jump

  • I use Firefox, but tbh I don't know why. Chrome is usually always faster when I have tested..

    I think it's def nice to give attention to the only other big browser that doesn't use chromium under the hood
