Delta K.@Lydie A classic one

@Lydie HTML only websites ftw
@TheIdOfAlan I'm actually considering making a new personal website with nothing but HTML, tables and simple graphics. Very 1998.
@TheIdOfAlan Maybe I'll make it in Netscape Communicator 😆
@Lydie ahhahah. super old school. love it!
you may get a kick outta this: I made a kind of pixel art page using just a HTML table and deprecated BGCOLOR attributes:
FoolishOwl@Lydie @TheIdOfAlan I was looking in to the Gemini protocol, and at end, was thinking it made much more sense to just use plain basic HTML, since everyone's already got a web browser.
Like, holy shit, what if we used HTML the way it was originally intended to be used?
Tim Chase@Lydie @TheIdOfAlan While I'd skip the table-based layout (it's not so good for accessibility), I vigorously endorse the rest of your plan 😄
Furbland's Very Cool Mastodon™@Lydie @TheIdOfAlan that’s genuinely how I do most of my webdev. http://mgdl.mobi for example needs to work on the browser of an OS used by 2005-2012 era bootleg phones, so it’s super simple. I still don’t entirely understand flexboxes.
Taran Rampersad@Lydie it should add now that nobody wants updates sent automatically... 👀🙄🤣

Hasufin@Lydie I miss when websites were mostly HTML.
Paul@Lydie I am not suggesting that Mr S L Jackson would be the perfect person to recite the text on that website, but a recent advert he was involved in might make them a candidate:

I wish restaurants could learn this lesson

Angelo Massaro@Lydie lol, I love it
Patrick Morris Miller@Lydie And built using vi. (Or emacs. We get both kinds of music here.)
Joel Truher@Lydie this is the best post ever produced by humanity
LaughgoddammitGenius 😂
mtc_uk@Lydie Should be the first and maybe only lesson in Web Design 101.

LeiaThat's how the one I'm building works. Miiiiiight look up CSS to change the font to sans serif and have a different background color, but yeah.

Jonatan@Lydie as in contrast to all the sites at https://www.awwwards.com/! Many sites is “mobile first”, but when you open the site on a desktop monitor, the fonts are big as fuck and you have to scroll up and down to read. To make you more confused, the text animates when you scroll and you loose concentration. It looks fancy but it takes more time to process the information and find what you are looking for. Here is my company site: https://proptikom.se/. Not the fastest, but quite clean.

I checked, and that site doesn't specify a font at all, so your browser just uses its default font, which you can change if you want.
Also, what profanity? That site is fucking perfect. 😉
Thorsten Zöller@Lydie Yes, it's a nice companion to another classic, https://justinjackson.ca/words.html.
Of course, it would be even better to ditch HTML altogether and just use the #geminiprotocol...
Pixtxa 
@Lydie But a darkmode would be nice.
Psyhackological@Lydie the only thing missing is dark mode
Martin B.@Lydie best website on the internet bar none, period! Always was, always will be!
Pikario 
Lunar 🛸 ♾@Lydie Always thought it funny how people kept building on this, including https://thebestmotherfucking.website/ which kind of misses the point in my book
VER-1602@Lydie mfw I *want* my websites to look like this
But saying I used 12 frameworks and apis i had no reason to use looks better on a resume :|
(My blog looks more like this with some styling I made by hand, and its not gotten me any bites)

John LuskSomewhere along the way, this little piece of black magic became necessary for plain old websites to be legible on mobile:
\<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
But, yes, nice and minimal.
🤯Matera the Mad🤯@Lydie FUCK YES
XennyG@Lydie I mean sure, but have you ever been welcomed to ZOMBOCOM, where the infinite is attainable and the only limit…is yourself?
