Wander 0.3.0 is out.

This is the third release of this small, decentralised, self-hosted tool for discovering the smol web.

This release brings fixes for unnecessary horizontal scrolling, some websites failing to load due to <iframe> sandbox restrictions and duplicate page recommendations appearing too close together.

For more details, see: https://codeberg.org/susam/wander/src/branch/main/CHANGES.md#0-3-0-2026-03-25

Every time I create a new HTML project, a small chunk of my time is spent resolving horizontal scroll issues I was sure I had finally got right.

Here is my peace offering today to the horizontal scroll demons that lurk in the Wander project: https://codeberg.org/susam/wander/commit/166ecfc

@aartaka Thanks for setting up Wander!

I have just added support for customisation so you can keep your index.html file unmodified, which makes updating to newer versions easier.

Here are the steps to customise the UI: https://codeberg.org/susam/wander#customise-your-console

A little note I wanted to write down several years ago. Finally done.

HN Skins 0.4.0 is out.

This small update fixes the rendering of the commemorative black bar that Hacker News sometimes displays when a notable figure in technology or science passes away.

I realised the issue today after HN placed a black bar following the news of Tony Hoare's passing: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47324054

That prompted me to investigate the issue and implement the fix in this release.

Simplified my blogroll a bit. It is no longer a periodically updated list of posts. It is now just a static list of websites. It may sound like a step backward but it removes a few moving parts and simplifies the website setup.

My blogroll is perhaps the only page on my website where every link is purple for me. I visit them all.

There is also an OPML file at the end that provides a feed of all the websites in my blogroll.
