I searched for some form creation services which allows file uploads (for the cheatsheet submission form coming in the next big update), found Formstr, which is a decentralized form creation tool, using the Nostr protocol:

I also recreated last year's User Survey, with some minor modifications:

(Unfortunately it doesn't work without JavaScript though, similar to all the other privacy-respecting options I looked at, but if you know any other service which works without JS, let me know, I'll take a look at it)
I also migrated the sites from the old Codeberg Pages server to the new git-pages. The domains didn't change, you should still be able to access the sites as usual. In fact, they seems to load much faster now. But let me know if you have any issues accessing them.

Node.js 26 enables the Temporal API by default, updates the V8 engine to 14.6.202.33, and brings Undici 8.0.2. Learn about these key new features.

I regenerated the HTML cheatsheets using the new page-builders tool, and fixed a lot of bugs/mistakes. Now I'm working on regenerating the JavaScript cheatsheets.

Anyone use #RecalBox? I was going to put #RetroPie on my old #RPi3 but the #RaspberryPiImager no longer offers it, only RecalBox. Sounds fine from what I’ve read but curious as to what you #RaspberryPi #retrogaming folk think.
