#GitHub's html/css/js being so b0rken that your only options to grab the git url for a project are to either fire up a crappy full-fat web browser or to use curl and parse it yourself is exactly the kind of thing that tends to radicalize someone.
#HTMLolFia, where you at?!?
P.S., having to fire up any web browser just to get the four commands needed to build your dadgum project instead of just including that in your README.md?
<voice="Ivan Drago">I must break you</voice> /j
I mean, it would be the SECOND online cult I started ;)
Hello, #CasioCult!! :D
There's also the #htmLOLfia which seems mostly dormant, but I'm sure Guido is getting in position to give zuckerberg a thermonuclear wedgie any day now.
Hey #AskFedi,
I'm thinking of writing an article about browsing Web 1.0 in the modern world (i.e., no JS, sometimes no CSS, sometimes no graphics at all).
Do any of you guys use online services* that work well without JS?
Care to share for my post? :D
Y'all are amazing #FediFriends <3
#NoJS #htmLOLfia #TheOldWeb #Web1 #WebOnePointZero
* Things like navigations, movie listings, points of interest, reviews, but anything, really. :D
Every time I launch a web browser:
(to myself): "Welp, let's fire up three hundred megabytes of disappointment!"
It's a joke I started a few months ago.
After I coined the hashtag #CasioCult after the trend on the fediverse (and especially #fosstodon) of ditching "smart" watches for "dumb" Casios, I wanted something similar to bring together people who hated the JS-beleagured, slow-and-abusive modern web.
So I figured, if we have a Casio CULT, what about an HTML *MAFIA*?
And then just so people know it's a joke, I put LOL in the middle of the name. ;)
This dude's answer made me smile:
Pastebin raw text version, for my #htmLOLfia #noJS peeps:
Bob Jarvis's answer: OMG! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! :-) Iβve been programming since I was 16 (the digits have now swapped places, but Iβm still writing code :-), so perhaps I can provide a bit of perspective here. Iβve written literally hundreds of thousands of lines, and a pile of major apps, in C+...
I think there's an actual no-js site and/or webring, check with @kev and @joel
But yeah, welcome to the #htmLOLfia!
That's ok! I don't think anyone's used #htmLOLfia in quite some time, but I kinda love it, so there it is ;)
#CasioCult gets a lot of traffic, I believe.
Oh my goodness... where do I even start with hashtags. We have "actual" (tongue-in-cheek) cult hashtags on mastodon, like
#CasioCult - fans of casio watches, and not smartwatches
#htmLOLfia - the HTML (No Javascript) mafia
I actually use hashtags to organize some of my own toots for easy reference, like:
